this whole argument about who is better is simply pointless. they are all elite, simply trained to specialize in different things...you need a hostage rescued DEVGRU or DELTA is your choice, train other spec ops and fight "gorilla" war army SF(green berets) are your choice, rescue a downed pilot PJs are your choice, call in CAS air strikes behind enemy lines CCTs, storm an air field deep in enemy territory Rangers or MARSOC, behind enemy lines recon SEALs .....all elite all deserve respect..

Seals and Green Berets both do an important job in the military.

@redthreemike SF didnt get Osama, SF didn't have a 200:1 Kill Death Ratio in Vietnam, SF didn't go into Mogadishu, SF didn't do a lot of things that SEALs did. DEVGRU was named Seal Team 6, which are SEALs.

Well first their jobs are different but in my opinion Army SF is way better. They can work in small groups or large groups. They are force multipliers and they have a group for every region of the world. They know the languages, cultures and Army SF are the masters of Unconventional Warfare. Small groups of SF were the ones that brought down the taliban & al qaeda from the mountains and also defeated several Iraqi divisions from the north and west of Iraq...not SEALs..

@swedishfish2 and dnt forget tht they all fite for the same nation

[filthyslope]

They train and lead indigenous forces into the fight. And they have many specialist sub-units that are at least the equal od SEAL recon and Direct action platoons.

7th group is one of the special forces battalions

[blasiankid87]

you ppl are 4geting about the USAF; combat controllers and PJ's.

[vdotme]

I thought that Rangers were most flexible but the green berets were the shock troops, were you just joking there?(ie rangers smaller better trained but lighter warfare precision scenario , Green berets "less elite" gr8r numbers heavier arms so less flexible.) Deltas no one is supposed to know what they do. What is 7th gp pls?

Green Berets are not better than SEALS. SF trains other countries SF forces and in war they train indigenous forces. SF commanders wait entire careers to lead men into combat. There are several groups dedicated to various regions in the world. SEALS have better chance to see action. DELTAS are the GOD of WAR. THEY are guarenteed to see action. They are the tip of the USSOC spear.
