So many ex army, and marines brats I have met, were told by their fathers, join the Air Force as they look after their guys, and girls better from food to accommodation.
I swear most people have NO idea about these other elite special operations units from other branches. The general public mostly think the only elite units America has are Navy Seals. As a Marine I can tell you Air Forces PJs are legit beasts. They can save your life and still kick your ass. I imagine the other units in Air Force Special Warfare are just as much so.
Surprisingly, there are units that can enter the battlefield in secret while also setting up a hidden tent and equipment to create an operating room. They then can proceed to conduct surgery on the battlefield while also being combat ready. It's crazy how people trained at the level of doctors can also do crazy stuff. I even heard of people in the 160th SOAR that can literally jump into a highly dangerous area to get an air craft working again. Just the most highly experienced pilots and air craft repairs that will maximize all left over power to get a badly damaged helicopter up and out of the danger zone. Crazy stuff our U.S. military is capable of.
@@yurrr4338 Yeah, I know what the vid is about. However, my reference is to my experience with PJs. Seems you missed the part where I also indicate that "other units in Air Force Special Warfare are just as capable" which automatically and intentionally includes the topic of this video, "Air Force Special Recon." Trust me they weren't left out, they were highlighted.
That is because these guys are NOT NEEDED in the US Military, these units are just another example of the total waste of our governments defense budget, the missions they are training to do, Have been being done by Army Rangers, and Marines for over 50 years , So why the hell does the Air Force now need to take on this same task, AGAIN wasted military spending, I served in the 1st Bn 75th INF ( Rangers) Airborne back in 1979 to 83, we did these missions all the time, why does the command staff think the AIR FORCE now needs SNIPERS and RECON TEAMS, next thing we'll have the SPACE FORCE attending DELTA training .
Duh they teach that drone warfare isn’t completely new in reconnaissance you learn to reconcile without being spot their well aware that drones and cameras and technology is a thing
@@landenjones9374 these are jobs in special operations.. Tier 1 you actually have to requalify, another shorter pipeline to see if you're actually even more capable.. top .001%... There are Seals and MARSOC and many other operators don't get to go Tier 1.
The Marines were the first unit in our military to have a special operations unit. The army came along, the Navy had UDT , then came Seals. I guess now the Air Force has their special reconnaissance unit. Of course the Air Force has PJs. Which are awesome. The best at what they do. It's just all that the Air Force, which in the title, Air. Now they have units on the ground. As a force Recon Marine, I find that disturbing. Unnatural. Marine Force Recon was not set on the Navy Seals and they first came in in the early 60s. Because the Navy was infringing on the land which was the Marines area of operation. Truth be told most people don't know this, oh are there training for the Navy Seals early on in the '60s tapped into Marine Force Recon training techniques. But not very many seals will admit that. LOL! I think having all these ways of choosing to do ground reconnaissance is is too much. Leave the ground to the army in the Marines. Leave the sea to the Navy, and leave the air space to the Air Force. Just one man's home opinion.
Air Force CCT's and PJ"s have been around since the Korean war, the CCT's were pattern after Army Pathfinders and PJ's were started to recue downed pilots, Air Force Special operations have been around for decades same as UDT's were around since WW2.
No, the Army Rangers were, WW2, disbanded then brought back during the Korean war, initial training and pattern was from the British Special operations, Marine Corps "Raiders" came after that.
Clarification: Rangers were first, Marine Raisers were next both during WW2, Raiders were also disbanded after WW2, Force Recon started in 1958, the Air Force already had "PJ's" and CCT's.
So many “commandos” out there with the same skill sets, same weapons, same gear, and same egos. The playground is getting very crowded, because every branch wants to put its own brand on everything “special”.
@@nunyah8705I was talking about the left wanting men as women in the military guess I didn’t make the very clear. And for what I do for a living and is 40 years in corrections….
@LisaDavis1 The United States Army Is and shall remain "Big Brother" to All branches of The United States Military (Established on or before 1775). One Army Be all that you can be in The Army, (Navy,Air Force ) 6******🇺🇸
Which unit/s were you with? it's really satisfying to know that the country has "Arm Chair" warriors like yourself, all other Branches of the Military are aware of Air Force special op's, ask any Seal, Ranger or SF operator, I'm sure you know of plenty right? so keep laughing your ass off clown..
@@harald53er Nope, Two combat tours in Iraq as an 0351 Assault Marine, wounded once, Came home got my RRT in Respiratory, Retired now im sitting fat on pension.. So no.. no sorry I am a Marine.> But the chair force. oof.. Your turn

That is what my father has told me. Lol
My daddy did 21 years in the Army and always told me the same thing
Spot on, somewhat. They will rough it IF they have to but they'll get special pay (they did this overseas) when CCTV's jumped with us.

@@harveysanchez6993 Indeed. These people are so under appreciated.
You are very correct. I spent years in the army before I knew about these elite units in other branches
Man those guys just flexing that budget
Funny how not to long ago they were called special operations weather teams!!
So are these the guys who went through the Stargate?
Honestly I wouldn’t doubt it lol
Essentially, yeah. But O'Neill and Carter were pilots prior to being USAF SF.
I rather be a pj or one of these guys then a seal or a ranger these guys don’t get the credit they deserve

@way75mit9 one of those air force guys must have taken ya girlfriend or wife. Every unit has a need. Next time just slow down n think before typing.
I loved how the raiders were first put into use in world war II for the Marine Corps.
Hopefully they’re trainin to stay undetected by drones off camera
I laughed out loud!!!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂
There was a dude from SR that had the most kills in Afghanistan!!!!! But you don’t hear about that….. ❤🇺🇸
Duh they teach that drone warfare isn’t completely new in reconnaissance you learn to reconcile without being spot their well aware that drones and cameras and technology is a thing
Video games are becoming reality.
Are they the tier 1 SF unit of USAF? I know the PJ’s are gangster but not sure about SR.
No that would be the 24thSTS ( 24th special tactics Squadron)

US 🇺🇲 AIR FORCE SPECIAL FORCES
President Musk and Vice President Trump taught them all the know.
why does the 'airforce' have ground soldiers?
They started as weathermen back when someone had to be on the ground. They still do meteorological missions if needed.
They do, and a lot of them
USAF Combat Weathermen used to get attached to US Army Special Forces back in the 90's...

Been around for awhile. Arguably the most secretive in tier 2
