Delta vs SAS

😬 More blind support. Boy are the people of this forum open minded and intelligent. The Rangers are better than the Marines as far as land combat. But they fall short to Delta, SAS, and probably the SEALs. While the Rangers are one of the top units as far as the US military goes, when you look at only the Special Operation units, the Rangers are nothing special. The Rangers and Marines are more numerous then the other Special Ops Units, a consequence of this is that they have less training, and less skill. While the are still Elite soldiers, they cannot stand up to the top tiers of Special Operation Units.

Oh he's clearly not smart, but expecting anyone to get a CoD reference is simply a generalization.

well my point was more that you should in general avoid taking the condescending mightier than thou route because you never know when the context might be going right over your head... in this instance if hed said that rangers werent the best and explained why and left it at that i would have just explained that it was a joke and all would be good but to insult my intelligence when he failed to interpret the intention of my post in the first place... just makes it seem a little excessive

A Call of Duty reference which has been used since World War II? Wow, I didn't know they made Call of Duty way back then. Also, if you intended it as a video game reference, then you could have put (Call Of Duty) in Parentheses, as by just posting what you posted, your post should be interpreted merely as the Ranger Motto, thus showing that you believe the Rangers are the best of the best. Also, why post a video game reference in this thread? It is completely irrelevant.

But really, how is that a video game reference? That has been the Ranger Motto since WWII.

Also, 'Cerebral Tyrannosaurus' good one, I've never heard that one. However, I think my Masters Degree would disagree with that a bit. Although, I will admit, plenty of idiots get college degrees, though most not in any science.

"One Riot, One Ranger" That refers to the Texas Rangers, does it not? This I may be wrong on, but if I remember correctly this motto pertains to the Texas Rangers, not the Army Rangers.

wow... you totally didnt get any of what i said... 😐

did you even click the call of duty link i put in my post? ...its underlined 😐

like that would seriously answer all of your questions 😐 and also make you look silly.

as for "cerebral tyrannosaurus..." i shouldnt have to explain why that would be a compliment.

20 minute wiki-degree FTW, yet again. This is why KMC is awesome.

Edit: wait, you're just a sock.

Oh I never said that 'Rangers Lead The Way' wasn't in a game. Just that it shouldn't be used as a video game reference, unless stated when it is first used.

Nope, doesn't answer my questions.

Oh really? For some reason when I read the original post, I read it as sarcastic, and demeaning. If it wasn't meant in that way, then I merely read it in the wrong light, and for that I apologize. Though, I do believe it was intended as sarcastic.

Oh how I wish I got my degree in 20 minutes. Then I wouldn't be so damn mad that its currently worth about as much as the paper its printed on.

you got me.

Dear Lady, I know no more about you than the content of this post yet I want to spend the rest of my life with you or someone just like you.

You are truly a rarity in forumland.

itll break your heart to know that im a secretly a guy then 😉

dont tell anyone though! =O

👆

seriously though thanks! 😄 i dont get compliments like that very often 😛

SEAL... i respect them... they are smart...

I'm going to have to go with the Super Army Soldiers.. (3:50 in the video)

YouTube video

No SAS soldiers have been KIA since WW2

You are very wrong my friend. Lots of SAS soldiers have been killed since WW2.

Some were killed in Borneo, at least 2 were killed in Oman and if you've ever read the book Bravo 2 Zero by Andy McNabb you'll know that 3 were KIA during the Gulf War.

The SAS are the most versatile soldiers in the World and are trained to fight with minimal equipment, heavily outnumbered and with no operational support.

They do this very well and do not depend on modern technology to complete their objectives.

They DO NOT guard the UK Prime Minister or Royalty as previous people claim, these guards are either MOD Police or one of the elite Armed Police units such as SO19.

They DO, however, take the role of "SWAT" in extreme Counter-Terrorist situations only. This has only ever happened twice, to my knowledge. See The Iranian Embassy siege for information.

In the extremely rare event that they are deployed domestically for this reason, they operate on a "take no prisoners" policy, they are not Police and they will only make arrests if a camera is watching.

After the Iranian embassy siege, there was a hearing, as people were killed on British soil. The court asked one of the SAS soldiers, "Can you tell me why this suspect was found to have 25 shots to his chest during autopsy?", to which the SAS soldier replied "Yeah, I ran out of ammo"

The SBS are very similar to the SAS and undergo the same selection and training, however they continue to undergo amphibious training and are used in Mountain and Amphibious operations. Only soldiers from the Royal Marines can join the SBS, but any serviceman can join the SAS. (I say join loosely, you must be "recommended"😉

During training, the SAS/SBS go through the toughest physical and mental training in the World. They are tortured as much as the Human Rights Act will bend to during their training.

SFOD Delta are trained well, but they are trained to work with all operational support and technical equipment. They undergo some "spartan" training, but the focus is more so on working with lots of kit. The SAS are trained to operate with the bare minimum, this is what gives them the edge.

Not only that, but about 85% of SAS soldiers are the toughest SOB's from the Parachute Regiment and Royal Marines. The kind of guys that would pummel about 10 people during a pub brawl and still come out laughing despite being bottled, chaired and probably getting a broken nose.

Hope this helps!

hmm.. i would pick the SAS over Delta Force i never put much stock in american combat training no matter how elite it claims to be especially when u see these turds running around they just disappoint you.

anyways SAS combat training is actual combat training not some sissy americanized let me pamper ur @$$ and you think ur being rigorously trained b/c the worse you got as a kid was a stern lecture and a time out..
