US Army Special Forces

The United States Army Special Forces, colloquially referred to as the Green Berets,The Fire Breathers were a division of the United States Army, responsible for a portion of the Appalachian Automated Launch System.
==Background==
Alongside the Intelligence Corps, Special Forces operatives were deployed in Appalachia as liaisons between the Strategic Air Command and the Appalachian Automated Launch System, protecting nuclear launch codes and delivering them to launch crews and their officers when needed. Those who survived the Great War became afflicted by the Scorched Plague, obeying the orders of their scorchbeast masters.Scorched officer equipment Some also became feral ghouls due to the radiation.Feral ghoul officer equipment
The Special Forces became synonymous with combat prowess, and the name "Green Berets" entered common parlance, to refer to elite fighters. Even 160 years later, the term would evoke the same connotations.Boxer (Fallout 2): "{344}{}{I eat green berets for breakfast.}"
==Technology==
The Special Forces were equipped with high-quality military resources, with equipment such as combat armor Mk II reserved specifically for them and shock troops.Fallout 2 Official Strategies & Secrets p.65: "Combat Armor is prewar personal body armor. Combat Armor Mk. 2 was designed as a heavier set of personal armor, reserved for use by shock troops and Special Forces."
==Appearances==
The remains of the Special Forces appear in Fallout 76. They are also mentioned in the Fallout 2 Official Strategies & Secrets guide.
