Green Berets

           

 "A symbol of excellence, a badge of courage, a mark of distinction in the fight for freedom."

                          President Kennedy on the Green Berets, April 11, 1962

The president JFK realy wanted to support the United States Department of Defense and after a visit in Fort Bragg, a US Army Special Warfare Center, he authorized the “Green Beret” as the official headgear for all US Army Special Forces.

Soon after, the President authorized the “Green Beret” as the official headgear and these Unconventional Warriors were thereafter and ever known as “The Green Berets." 

Their most important missions are unconventional warfare, foreign internal defense, special reconnaissance, direct action, hostage rescue, and counter-terrorism.
