Hawk, the fundermental problem I have with your statement and I must say this but if their training is the same or similar, that the defeats the ENTIRE use of Special Forces, neither of these units are idiots and nor have they got similar training, the purpose of Special Forces to give the best the hardest and one of the hardest is beating an opposing Special Forces, the SAS will have diffrent training and probably superior from my sources for both units, if they had similar training then that defeat their entire objective, you might aswell call them Special Air SEALs if their too similar, the unique features of these units is what is significant and I will stand by my statement that the SAS's training is diffrent and that is why it will be superior because the method they train under is more concentrated to the man being the soldier not the unit, if the training was evenly matched, what unique ability does that give either?

The SAS have earned a reputation like no other because of their training and that is what makes them superior, because they do it diffrent, and that is what puts the Special in Air Service.
