I watch the war in Ukraine and you know who would be perfect there and are the only Special Ops Outfit that does the work? US Army Special Forces. They're force multipliers capable of organizing and leading (wink wink) allied or factional forces against outside threats or internal threats to nations friendly to us.

Having said all that I'm glad (hoping) they're not there.

What has me spinning is why would the UK waste their force in the type of warfare happening right now.  I always viewed the SAS as a type of raid force, operating like a downsized US Army Ranger type outfit.

Conventional warfare is NOT where they shine.  So why put them in this type of fight?
