History

This unit was created to bring all of Venezuela's special forces under one command. By grouping the best soldiers together, the military can react much faster to threats. They focus on special training that is much harder than what regular soldiers go through.

Members of this group are experts in things like parachuting, underwater swimming, and jungle survival. They are trained to work in small groups and operate secretly when needed. They must pass very hard physical and mental tests to join the team.

Today, this command is responsible for special tasks like guarding important places and helping during natural disasters. They are considered the most skilled soldiers in the country. They represent the high standard of training that the Venezuelan military wants for all its troops.
