Counterpoint to U.S. Special Operations Forces Cuts

The current geopolitical circumstances in which the United States finds itself are fraught with challenges and opportunities that its special operations forces (SOF) are uniquely able to address, making any significant reduction in SOF manpower unwise and potentially catastrophic for the long-term security of the Nation.

Drawn from all the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) services, SOF is organized under the functional command of the U.S. Special Operations Command (USSOCOM). U.S. SOF has a long and proud history of making significant contributions to the advancement of our national interests in unique but impactful ways.
