Well they're tough but not necessailly effective

. Nice example though neosdark

.
Im not really sure about US combat missions. I don't mean to be mean or hurtful to any US military combatants but we just don't seem as good or well known. Sure, we killed Osama Bim laden but that shouldn't even count

. He was unarmed. Derp

. I only bring that up b/c that was they're most recent action in the news
And some movies portray us as doing super but movies are suppose to glorify our performance in the name of the country

. And then some movies and TV shows always show us getting ambushed and taken hostage

Our KDR(to put it very simply) of enemy comabtants to US soldier IMHO is mainly due to our superior air power. Terriorist dont have F-14 fighters, they have.....car bombs

. And we have superior gear over them. But most special forces have this gearso we aren't nesscarily special in terms of equipment (although we do have a new stealth helicopter

)
