ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Special forces

Special forces are like superheroes in the army that are really good at doing secret missions that regular soldiers can't do. They are trained soldiers who know how to do things like rescue people, gather information about enemies, and take control of important areas.

These superheroes have to go through really tough training to become special forces. They have to be strong, skilled, and really smart. They learn how to climb mountains, swim in the ocean, jump out of planes, and survive in really tough environments. They even learn how to speak different languages so they can understand people in other countries.

Once they become special forces, they get to use cool gadgets like night vision goggles, guns with silencers, and computers that can help them find enemies even when they're hiding.

Special forces are very important to the army because they can do things that other soldiers can't, and they help keep us safe.
