A U.S. special forces soldier motions journalists away at the airport of the Port-au-Prince, Haiti, February 21, 2004, as Assistant Secretary of State for Western Hemisphere Affairs Roger Noriega, was due to arrive to broker an end to political tensions that have erupted into armed revolt. Noriega and delegates from Canada, France, the Americas and the Caribbean were holding talks with President Jean-Bertrand Aristide and his political opponents in the capital. The armed revolt that began on February 5 has killed more than 50 people. *******/Daniel Aguilar

Looks like DSS indeed.

They usually have on them cargo pants with a baseball cap...

Though private contractors like Dyncorp also dress similarly.

Delta and Army SF dress more miltaryish.

What complete and utter BS!You read too many books,I doubt you could distinguish any different SOF unit or regular unit if you were to slap "cargo" pants on them!!
My buds in Iraq all wear cargo pants and they are Jocks,not CAG

I though MSG because those guys are rather fond of the Trijicon Reflex.

WASHINGTON - The U.S. government, citing continued violence, urged Americans to leave Haiti on Thursday.

Peace Corps personnel are being withdrawn, and other U.S. citizens should leave while commercial transportation is still available, the State Department said.


We aren't sending troops from the 75th Ranger Regiment, 10th Mountain, and 160th SOAR, so, no, this isn't Episode 2...

Okay General Schoomaker.

Vance, I believe we may alreadyhave 'eyes and ears' on the ground. ;)







Not all of this he's SF, he's Delta type of horse manure. Just because he wears khakis/jeans, hat, and a goatee doesn't mean jack****. At my fraternity's 'Brothers' Night' last night, I was talking to a guy with very short hair, clean shaven, you wouldn't have guessed he was in the military. I was sitting there talking to him and he joked with one of his old friends by calling him something in Arabic...I ask him where did you learn that, you in 5th Group or something? He replies, you can say so I just got back from Afghanistan.

So, quit judging these guys by their hair and attire or weapons, it's pointless.
