uhhh sry but it's no "secret Air Service" u guys seriously need to read some more Tom Clancy... basiclly almost every major country has their own "special-forces" normal troops fight major wars where as "specail-forces" and other such troops participate in so called "black" operations, classified operations not released to the public, almost all special-forces units are elite soldiers (i.e better traing, better shooters, let's just say they'll rack up a bigger body count) anyways SAS from Britian is one of these units, in the US forces such as the Army Rangers, Green Berets, and Marines Force Recon are considerd "special-operations" units, however the SAS is really outside the term "special-operations unit" in each country there is a group of highly-elite solfiers culled from the best of the military to act prinarily as a counter-terrorism unit, In Britian it's the SAS, in the US they have the Delta Force, Geremany GSG-9, France has em' sry forget wat they're called there, Australia has the SASR-obviously being a former British colony they have the same name except i forget wat the "R" stands for. And even here in the good ol' Canada we have the amazing JTF-2-Joint Task Force 2..often considered the on par with or surpassing of the SAS, 1 of the foremost counter-terrorism units in the world, if nayone's read Rainbow SIx, or played the game, basiclly "Rainbow" was a super-elite counter-terroism squad culled from other countries counter-terroism squads that worked for the UN. k but IT"S NOT REAL, but a good read non the less. anyways to get back on topic that really is dumb of them, if some American took JTF-2 as their clan name, i'd be angry, even though i don't own an XBox...anyways if it makes u feel any better they must be really jelous of ur awesome counter-terrorism force :)
sry for all the spelling/grammar errors but i typed this fast and I'm tired *_*
