In the annals of modern military history, there is a select group of warriors whose courage and skill go beyond the common. They are the special forces, the elites among the elites, whose existence and operations are often hidden in the shadows of the underground. These units are trained to operate in the most hostile environments and carry out the most dangerous missions, where life and death balance on a fine thread.
