The use of U.S. Special Operations Forces has figured prominently in the response to the 9-11 attacks and in Operation Iraqi Freedom. Consequently, much has been written regarding their roles, training, and recent operations.
This class is designed to familiarize you with the actual charter of these unconventional warriors as well as to dispel some myth, rumor and innuendo.
Colonel Conner is the US Army Senior Service College Fellow at CIS's Security Studies Program. He is a Special Forces Officer and was in command of Special Forces units during three combat rotations in Iraq, the first as Special Forces A Team Leader during Operation Desert Storm, and twice as a Special Forces Battalion Commander during Operation Iraqi Freedom.
