COUNTERTERRORISM
Stopping Terrorists Before They Strike
Special Forces are often deployed to preclude, preempt and resolve terrorist incidents abroad. They prevent, deter and respond to terrorist activities and train other nations' military in the basics of fighting terrorism. One of the current main goals of the Counter Terrorism exercise is to thwart terrorist uprisings or cells from forming.
Real-World Mission
Special Forces Soldiers are now more important than ever in the fight against global terrorism. Since the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center in New York, Special Forces Soldiers, working with our allies, have captured numerous al-Qaeda members, disassembled terrorists cells and cut off funding to those groups in countries like Pakistan and Indonesia.
Soldiers continue to work with local governments and police forces to watch and hunt down growing terror networks around the globe.
