Which Is A Tougher Soldier? A Marine Recon, Seal, Or Ranger?

I'd say the British SAS, closely followed by the FFL. As for US units, those named in this thread all seem good to me.

JTF-2 ? Yes and no. They have little war experience and mostly look like a bunch of crying babies.

I remember talking about this in high school with a history teacher. I believe he said British SAS and the FFL. In so many words, those fuckers are no joke.

All are great, but I give bigger props to Corpsman/Medics anyday..

My Dad told me stories of basically being unarmed in firefights in the open field,
and having to stuff entrails back into Spec Ops dudes.
Starting an IV (not easy to do in a hospital bed) in a mud trench.
Carrying a 250 lbd marine 100 yds on his back then working on him.
Praying with scared duded as they met their makers.
Knowing that every drop or landing would be a hot one because if it wasn't,
why would you need corpsman deployed there ASAP ?

We all see the numbers of people killed in conflicts, but look at
the Injured number.

Everyone of them had a Corpsman/Medic work on them in the field.
