Fort Carson Units - 10th Special Forces (Airborne)
U.S. Army Special Forces Command (Airborne) has evolved through
a spirited heritage - spanning three centuries and threading itself
through numerous organizations.
Its soldiers trace their lineage to the 1st Special Service
Force (Devil 's Brigade) and derive their heritage from elements
of the Office of Strategic Services (Jedburghs, Operational Groups
and Detachment IO 1).
Special Forces soldiers have earned the title of "Quiet Professional."
They have been involved in peacetime operations and armed conflicts
around the world over the past five decades.
In addition to service in Vietnam, Special Forces were recently
employed in Panama during Operation Just Cause and during Operations
Desert Shield and Storm.
Desert Storm Commander, Gen. H. Norman Schwarzkopf, described
Special Forces as the "eyes and ears" of conventional forces and
as the "glue that held coalition forces together."
Special Forces soldiers continue to serve at home and abroad
providing humanitarian assistance and assisting with foreign internal
defense in friendly foreign nations. Recent humanitarian assistance
missions include Promote Liberty, Provide Comfort, Sea Angel, Guantanamo,
Cuba, Hurricane Andrew, and Restore Hope. They continue to willingly
undertake difficult missions in order to help those who are less
fortunate. They are quiet professionals, living by their motto "De
Oppresso Liber" - To Free the Oppressed.
On November 27, 1990, the U.S. Army 1st Special Operations
Command was redesignated the U.S. Army Special Forces Command (Airborne).
Its mission: to train, validate, and prepare Special Forces units
to deploy and execute operational requirements for the war-fighting
commanders-in-chief.
Special Forces Command exercises command and control over
five active component groups. Additionally, it exercises training
oversight of two Army National Guards groups.
Each Special Forces Group is regionally oriented to support
one of the war fighting commanders-in-chief (CINCs). Special Forces
soldiers routinely deploy in support of the CINCs of U.S. European
Command, U.S. Atlantic Command, U.S. Pacific Command, U.S. Southern
Command and the U.S. Central Command
