I can tell u from my experience as a SEAL that they are not... We trained foreign nationals back in the day, and the only ones who showed any promise were the Dutch and the Greeks... I wasnt impressed with any of the Mexican SpecWar guys...

Les: interesting comments there. Do you think the fact Mexico is not a nation with strong overseas economic/political interests can influence the performance level of those soldiers?

Mexico has not experienced any major war since the XIX century when the mexican army got its ass utterly kicked. A minor participation was experienced during WWII when only one fighter squadron served in the PTO as a member of the allied side.

In the case of the soldiers from Netherlands and Greece we know both nations are NATO members; also in the case of the Greeks add the Turkey factor to scene, so it would not be surprising to see their soldiers striving for the best standards.

What do you think?

From what I can remember, the Mexicans never really had the motivation or the desire to make themselves better... I do recall when they first showed up at Little Creek that they were full of attitude, piss and vinegar...

That changed within the first day.... We ran them into the ground...

A positive mental attitude is important in any way of life ,but essential in the military. " Never let the Bas*%&^ get you down ".
A quote I always liked " The great gales of Ireland are the men that god made mad, for all their war's are merry and all their song's are sad ".

Poland's Operational Maneuver Reconnaissance Group (GROM) (also referred to as Thunderbolt) is the nation's elite Special Forces (SF) unit. Created 10 years ago to combat terrorist threats, the GROM is Poland's equivalent to the U.S. Delta Force and the British Special Air Service (SAS). GROM personnel undergo rigorous training and have gained international recognition through their participation in several multinational operations.
there second best in the world says the United stats government web site

Well if the SAS are the best and the Polish unit is second, then The USA must be third.

Yea, and if u believe that, I got a bridge in Lower Manhatten I'll sell to u for real cheap....

Say what u want, but it comes down to the Top 3, and depending on the mission profile, any of them could be #1...

USN SEALs
Israeli Sayeret 13/Matkal/Shaldag
British SAS 22 Regiment

How would the Swedish elite forces compare, Minister of Whoopass? Thinking of the Arctic Rangers from I22, Airborne, Attackdykarna and Coastal Rangers....
