Special Operations Forces Officers
SOF are elite combat units that operate with stealth, concealment, and surprise to accomplish their operations. SOF conduct search and destroy missions, clear underwater mine fields, and go behind enemy lines. They provide specialized air power for worldwide deployment and assignment to conduct unconventional warfare, special reconnaissance, counterterrorism, foreign internal defense, humanitarian assistance,
psychological operations, personnel retrieval, and counternarcotics.
