UK Special Air Service

Qualification Statement:
"I agree to carry out arduous duties
with no recognition, no rewards,no promotions, and no medals.

The SAS combat units are called "Sabre Squadrons" and
consist of between 60 and 70 men.

"A Special Operator needs 
to be able to take an 
unpredictable approach and 
work his way around a problem 
instead of confronting it head 
on. If the enemy does not know, 
what you are all about, they 
make themselves vulnerable to 
you"
