I'll start by introducing the unit who did.
Its a small force of a few hundred operators. The country it self has a small, not very seriously taken armed forces. (howeverm they are highly competent and effective given their man power and budget)
within the SOF force, all members undergo the same initial training. From there, there are two streams. the "green" and the "black" stream. Offically, it refers to the uniform worn by the members, the green members focusing on SF operations in a conventional war, such as taking out high ranking officers, disrupting commo, and generally sneaking into the rear and causing trouble.
The thus wear the same uniform as the conventional members of the force, as its required under the laws of war, and keeps them inconspicous.
The black ops streaned nenbers, wear a basic uniform of black battle dress pants, a black tee, and black turtleneck sweater, with no epluettes or velco to affix a flag or a nametape, and either the boots, general purpose or their own choice of aftermarket boots, often Magnum brand. Then comes a black Nomex balaclava and some sort of ballistic eyewear, and finally, a pair of heavy, black leather or kevlar gloves. On top of that, goes mission specific gear. Body armour, helmets, tacvests\webbing, backpacks, and the like. The standard weapons are the countrys Service rifle, which is an AR-15 variant, and the HK MP5 sub machinegun. along with the entire lineup of Sig and Glock sidearns, at the operators preference. Operators Can, and often do request non standard weapons based on personal preference. Most of the time, the request is granted.
other standard, but special issue weapons are the parker\hale nodel 82 rifle, m203 grenade launcher, FN MAG and browning M2.
then come the odd balls, requested by operators themselves out of personal prefererence.
I'll carry on with more tomorrow. I'm fucking tired.
