The1st Special Service Force(also calledThe Devil's Brigade,The Black Devils,The Black Devils' Brigade, andFreddie's Freighters), was an eliteAmerican-Canadiancommandounit inWorld War II, under command of theUnited States Fifth Army. The unit was organized in 1942 and trained atFort William Henry HarrisonnearHelena, Montana in the United States. The Force served in theAleutian Islands, and fought inItaly, andsouthern Francebefore being disbanded in December 1944. The modernAmericanandCanadianspecial operations forcestrace their heritage to this unit. In 2013, theUnited States Congresspassed a bill to award the 1st Special Service Force theCongressional Gold Medal.

While carrying out beachhead operations atAnzio, legend has it that a member of the force uncovered the journal of a German lieutenant from theHermann Goering Division. The journal contained the following entry: "The Black Devils are all around us every time we come into the line. We never hear them come." This legend was never verified as fact by any member of the brigade; however, the force was known as the Black Devils and as the Devil's Brigade. The members of the brigade preferred the latter. General Frederick had cards printed up with the unit's insignia on them and the wordsDas dicke Ende kommt noch!or "The worst is yet to come" printed in red ink down the right sidewhich the force would leave on the bodies of dead Germans as a form of psychological warfare.This was so effective that Sergeant Victor Kaisner reported hearing a German soldier whisper"Schwarzer Teufel"("Black Devil") as the German's throat was being sliced on the beachhead.However, recent historiography surrounding the unit debates whether or not Frederick and his general staff made up the nickname in order to instill fear in the enemy. The unit was unofficially first known as the "Braves". Their spearhead shoulder insignia was chosen with this name in mind.The formation patch was a red spearhead with the words USA written horizontally and CANADA written vertically. The branch of service insignia was the crossed arrows formerly worn by theU.S. Army Indian Scouts. The unit wore red, white, and blue piping on theirgarrison capand on the breast an oval (or trimming) behind theirParachutist Wings. Members of the unit also wore a red, white, and bluefourragère,lanyard, or shoulder cord made out ofparachuteshroud lines. American members of the force arrived for training in Helena in standard U.S. Army attire: green twill coveralls, some wearing khaki pants and fatigue hats. Others were dressed in trousers and green uniform jackets and wore green caps. Ultimately, however, the American uniforms did not differ widely from one another. The Canadian troops, however, arrived in all different manners of uniform: some worekilts, others tartan trousers (trews) and others Bermuda shorts. Headgear differed just as widely, depending on where the soldier was from – wedge caps for some, black berets for troops taken from armoured regiments and large khakiTam o' Shantersfor soldiers from Scottish regiments. Eventually, it was decided that the uniforms would come from an American supplier and olive drab trousers and blouses were issued. The only thing that differentiated an American Force member from a Canadian one was the identification disc, aka "dog tags," worn by the soldier (Americans wore American metal ID tags and Canadians wore Canadian ID discs). Forcemen also wore a red, white and blueaiguillette. For mountain warfare, the men were given baggy ski pants, parkas and a helmet. Standard boots were originally the same as those issued to parachuting regiments, but these were substituted with infantry combat boots in Italy. Colonel Frederick worried from the outset that the soldiers from both countries would have trouble forming a cohesive unit. On a base level, the techniques and commands used by either army were confusing to the other. Commands for marching, for example, had to be homogenized in order for the unit to operate in the field effectively. In order to satisfy the men from both countries, compromises were made. Canadian bagpipers were put into American unit marching bands to play "Reveille" every morning. The marching styles and commands of the American and Canadian armies were mixed and uniforms were made identical.In the end, Frederick's fears were unfounded as the men bonded through training and dedication to the force.

When theSpecial Forces Tabwas created in 1983 for wear by members of the U.S. Army Special Forces, it was also retroactively awarded to members of wartime combat units that had been identified as predecessors of the Special Forces. Thus, any soldier who had spent 120 days in wartime service with the First Special Service Force was authorized to wear the Special Forces Tab.The modern American and Canadian special operations forces trace their heritage to this unit. In 2013, the United States Congress passed a bill to award the 1st Special Service Force the Congressional Gold Medal.(WiKi)TheUnited States Naval Special Warfare Development Group(NSWDG), orDEVGRU, is a U.S. Navy component ofJoint Special Operations Command. It is often referred to asSEAL Team Six, the name of its predecessor which was officially disbanded in 1987.DEVGRU is administratively supported byNaval Special Warfare Commandand operationally commanded by theJoint Special Operations Command. Most information concerning DEVGRU is classified and details of its activities are not usually commented on by either theWhite Houseor theDepartment of Defense. In 2010 it was reported DEVGRU's designation was changed by the Defense Department. Despite the official name changes, "SEAL Team Six" remains the unit's widely recognized moniker. It is sometimes referred to in the U.S. media as aSpecial Mission Unit.
