    I was only an 11B and not an operator, but we always brought along a few female MPs when we left the wire before combat arms was opened up to women.
    They provided a capability that infantry grunts couldn't in regards to talking with local woman and condcuting searches.

      BTW, some infantry units are actually better in firefights versus say Green Berets because of the nature of the roles. Your typical infantry unit will have much more experience as gun fighters, than many Green Berets!

    David, as a former 2/75 Ranger, we trained with the Blue Light Task Force in the 1970s in counterterrorism and hostage rescue.
    The only female officer that I saw was an Army Major psychologist.
    Several years ago a few women completed Ranger School, but from what I heard they were using female physical standards (quantity of exercises, ruck weights and required times to complete road march, etc).
    And then more recently, I learned that there was a female Company Commander in the Ranger Regiment.

    I'm married to a Filipina teacher I met while in the Peace Corps decades ago. She is highly intelligent, well educated having finished pre-medical school in 3 years in Manila on a full scholarship. Her family had no money for med school so she became a teacher.
    I have seen her in a few situations that were becoming dangerous and she handled them quickly and with intelligence and courage while I stood there amazed. I was ready to step in but she didn't need my help. She used her brain when I likely would have used brawn. THIS is likely the kind of woman that Delta Force would recruit. She is self possessed, self confident yet self effacing and a private person, never given to bragging. i.e.stable as hell and a great mother to two brilliant girls.

      You have the “Operators” the “Enablers” and the “Support”.
      The Operators are obviously the assaulters, breachers and snipers that complete the long walk, pass OTC and are successfully peer reviewed by a board of Unit Officers and troop Sergeant Majors
      The enablers are like your SIGINT interceptors, K9 handlers, UAV Operators, intelligence specialists, communications wizards, EOD ect. They have their own selection criteria and are hired on in a different format then the operators. This is what Mike Glover did when he got to the Unit, serving in TSE at G Squadron.
      The Support guys are like your vehicle mechanics, cooks, gun smiths, Drs and Surgeons, targeting officers ect.. again different pipe line as far as selection and training.
      Obviously a lot of differences, however all these folks are in fact considered Delta Force “members.” Just because you were not a “Operator” doesn’t necessarily make you any less valuable to the organization. In fact with out the enablers and support, the operators wouldn’t be able to preform at the levels they need to be at.

      I still remember watching "The Unit" on TV and they would depict the support personnel as soldiers wearing civilian clothing, but still being referred to by their rank. They would help with passports, plane tickets, translations, even had a translator of some African language that was with his family at home that would answer the call whenever the Unit needed him to help translate. Whether or not that's true or not, I don't know, but I would not be surprised, either. With Delta being funded they way they are, I'm pretty sure anything is possible with them 😂.

    Delta's operator course is different than its support arm. 1000 members of Delta, and only 250-300 operators (according to Sean Naylor). Read a book about a drone operator who was in Delta, didn't do OTC (Brett Velicovich). So it tracks that the support guys have their own selection process. This also tracks with the rest of SOF. If you go to group, and not as a green beret, there are still things you have to do to qualify for the positions. When I was in the first time you had to be Airborne, and then had a two week course you had to take as well as advanced schools for your mos afterwards. It isn't as hard as SFAS....................because you weren't going to be a green beret.
    A completely random thing: In the 90's, the Japanese creator of Resident Evil knew of the Funny platoon, and based Jill Valentine on female members of the Unit (she was an Army EOD member in Delta). So it isn't exactly an unknown well hidden bit of knowledge if somebody making video games in a different country that speaks a different language knew of their existence.
    There are female members of the Activity as well.
    Delta was created before JSOC, and thus Delta had everything it needed to operate fully on its own. It could run missions anywhere, because it was self supported. Some of those support positions have long had female members.
    Blue Light was a specialized unit of Army SF that held the line in between when Beckwith decided they needed Delta, and its creation.
    I read the shit out of delta stuff when I first got in. Bros (and gals) are fascinating.
    Naylor's book Relentless Strike is worth a read for all people interested in JSOC units.

      The evidence is Velicovich, who was in Delta, worked and interacted with the Delta operators (one came up to him once with his body armor covered in blood and started asking him questions) but never went to OTC. I'm sure other books/shows talk about the same thing, Velicovich is just the most recent one I remember.

      I came down to the comments section just to post about Shannon, but I see you beat me to it. She was an exceptional individual with a truly impressive resume, a veritable constellation of skills and qualifications, and was held in the highest regard by her peers and commanders, and her loss was deeply felt far and wide. With regard to females in SMU's, i always try to remind myself that you can be attached to a team or platoon to provide specialized support, say, as a SIGINT specialist, without necessarily having to go through the conventional selection and qualification process. For example, SOT-A's are an element of the Army's Special Forces, but they rarely go through SFAS/Q Course/etc. This isn't to say they don't have to go through their own rigorous selection and training process -- it's still a selective and difficult pipeline to make one's way through, and you ultimately need to earn the trust of your ODA by demonstrating your ability to carry your own weight as an operator when the situation dictates. You will still need to demonstrate your capacity to shoot, move and communicate on a level that renders you an asset and not a liability to the ODA. I can easily see how a female could be selected as a SOT-A, and likewise, I'm sure that similar opportunities exist in CAG for qualified female operators. Which brings me to G Squadron --- I always assumed G Squadron was Delta's in-house SIGINT/ISR/Etc. squadron, but I could be wrong. I wouldn't be surprised if there were women in G Squadron providing high level tactical signals intelligence for the unit... But this is just speculation, and I'd be willing to hear from others on the topic.

    It's always been blatantly obvious women serve in the top SF units of the world. People get very hung up on whether or not they're classified as the same as the men or have the same job title or whatever else. Of course they're training needs to be modified but they're also doing a modified job in support. Nothing is getting watered down. Also the term support even in of itself is often misleading. If you have a '2-man recce team' that is actually a man and woman, they're both pretty integral to what is going on and are arguably as 'support' as the other one. The out of the box asset angle of having female personnel in roles such as reconnaissance and surveillance are an absolute intuitive.

    Inside Delta Force by Eric Haney discusses the funny platoon and confirms the existence of female operators. He does not go into the vetting process but mentions females can get into places that males cannot without raising suspicions. In a side note: the term ‘operative’ or ‘operator’ are not the same thing. There is a legal distinction between the two words: operative refers to civilian agent, usually a spy or diplomat and operator refers to military.

    Back in 2010 when I was in the Army, we had a female supply sergeant that went to a female engagement team, the Army created this program that employs female soldiers to engage with women in the Battlefield, meaning they search or interrogate women once a target is secured because men can't do so in Muslim countries, she's no a female CAG operator, they don't go to CAG selection or OTC, all she did was a pt test female standards and some weapons training, nothing special, and language training. She's not an assaulter.

    • @nosirx
      @nosirx Před 3 měsíci

      Exactly. The MSG that was NCOIC of the program failed to meet the most basic of standards but they still kept her in charge of it for some reason. I had friends that helped run their training that were all NCOs but a female major was the highest ranking one out there during a few days of ranges. They got tired of shooting one day so they decided to order pizza out to the range and cut the training short. The male NCOs were pissed but were outranked by that female major that went on to CST.

  • @FrontUW
    @FrontUW Před 4 měsíci +5

    USASOC labels everyone within its command as an operator. This applies to support personnel as well. The CSM of USASOC is a woman who was never SF (Green Beret) or Ranger. They blur the lines of distinction in an attempt to show that there isn't a difference between an actual operator and support pax. I was attached to both A and B squadron in the sandbox in 2005. The only woman I saw was a lawyer at the command level. If women were such an asset, SF, who performs UW and FID, would have been utilizing them extensively. Women are an asset in say something like Army of Northern Virginia but this is more of an Intel collection role. The CSTs were not an asset to ODAs. They caused problems.

    It's unfortunate that feminism and "progressive" politics have created an atmosphere that women being used as women in special operations is seen as suspect. Its an obvious advantage to have women supporting missions. However, pushing women through Ranger school, the Q-Course, etc. has completely tarnished the reputation of women in service everywhere.
    Also--I think a lot of people dont understand that delta has their own selection for support personnel too. There are straight up POGs who are "in delta."

  • @ramblerwinter2907

    I think most people mix up D operator VS Black Ops. Personally I don't believe there are any women tier 1 squads out there running and gunning in the traditional thought. But I believe if we didn't use women in Black Ops along side operators when they were doing intelligence mission, not an assault on target mission. We would be stupid not to have women in those roles.

Just because women work with the Unit on some level or another does not mean they are in the unit. I am sure that there may be some scenarios when the unit could use women who have certain skills that are hard to find or just the fact they are a woman to complete a mission or task. I wouldn't rule anything out for a unit that prides itself on adaptability and forward thinking and always looking to solve problems with out of the box thinking...

    I think there are a lot of men who have been Delta. Support and assaulters. Of those men, some have had daughters. Some of those daughters might have been raised with the skill sets to be useful to an organization like Delta. Hopefully, not in a Red Sparrow kind of way.
    Every spy agency in the world has women, there is no reason to think a standalone organization that prides itself on its' organic capabilities wouldn't employ women for maximum effect. If that means being the 5th guy in a stack for a direct action operation where additional support is too far out, well, you should probably be prepared for that contingency.
