There is also one Battalion of Airborne in the Special Ops group. Couldn't pull it out as I ended up using my "free" 7 articles in 30 days in less then 30 minutes!?! Those Rat "Bassturds", but because of them you'll always know where to find the Bass when fishing!?!
The next shows that these forces existed in 1990.

It appears overall that these airborne designated troops have been around since 1957/58 as counterinsurgency Special Forces troops to counter the North Korean Special Forces infiltration units.
I'll race you to baldness, look at the "bright side" we've got ONLY 7.5 years to get there!?!
Regards,
Pat
