“Any mission, in any place, at any time, by every way,” is the name of the game for the Brazilian Special Operations Command. This elite fighting force was originally formed as a parachute rescue unit for missions deep in the Brazilian jungle. Today, the unit functions all over Brazil and is trained for conventional and unconventional combat against any type of enemy. One of the unit’s discerning capabilities is its ability to counter and destroy guerrilla warfare groups, not to mention its counter-terrorism and counter-insurgency capabilities.
