I have had quite a few people ask me what all the special forces groups where in the military, and I decided to look them up, and get links for people to look at them more in-depth. Here you go, I went in order from largest to smallest.

So far that I know, they recently opened up the Navy Seals for the Coast Guard to send people to train for, I found a article a while back that 4 were sent, 1 was injured, 1 failed, and 2 passed. I'll find the article if anyone wants it, I found it very interesting.
I apologize for missing a group, if I did, I tried to find everything I could. I honestly didn't know the Rangers where considered special forces until I read a article about it. If I missed a group, well, post it on a reply, I'll add them. I also apologize if I didn't go as depth in some as others, I simply had already looked them up. The US Army & US Air Force I had bias since I had already looked them up way before when debating whether to try for them.
