Established in 1986, the U.S. Special Operations Command was set up
to bring the special operational disciplines of all branches of the
military under a single, unified command to act on missions
involving unconventional warfare, special reconnaissance, foreign
internal defense, and direct action... The Marine Special
Operations Command ("MARSOC") is the newest component of the
military's shift toward a fully integrated Special Operations
Command structure. At first, the Marines were strongly against any
Marines serving under anyone other than another Marine. Then 9/11
happened. In the years following, Marine forces found themselves
growing more agreeable to inter-branch operational command, finally
forming the Marine Special Operations Command in 2006. Always
Faithful, Always Forward follows the journey of a class of Marine
candidates from their recruitment, through assessment and
selection, to their qualification as Marines Special Operators.
Retired Navy Captain Dick Couch has been given unprecedented access
to this new command and to the individual Marines of this
exceptional special-operations unit, allowing him to chronicle the
history and development of the Marine Special Operations Command
and how they find, recruit, and train their special operators.
