Their name may not sound like someone you would be afraid of but they are actually a Special Operations Command unit of the Philippine Army that specializes in anti-guerrilla jungle warfare, raids, ambushes, and sabotage. The Scout Rangers were created in 1950 to deal with the Hukbalahap guerrillas and later, they were a big part of the capture of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front rebel camp. Like the VAT 69, they are trained to fight in the jungle and track down enemies.
