Is there such things as SPEC-OPS, Splinter Cell(s) in the army?

Question

If so, which one should I join, regardless of the training. I dont want to join the Navy because I cant swim.

I know Splinter Cell is a game but If its a real thing then I could do it. I have the sneaking skill, I can climb high hieghts, and I can sneak into buildings undetected(dont ask and I wount tell). I've been skydiving meny of times before and I love it.

Answer 1

For one if you cant swim or if you have any fear of water, then Special Operations in any branch of the service is out of the question. second of all there is no such thing as a splinter cell, it doesn't exist. if you are trying to get into any Special Ops groups your grades in school had better be in the top percentile and your physical and mental capabilities had better be sharp. As to which one of the groups you should try and join, well that's entirely up to you. I myself spent all of my 26 year career in the Rangers and then Special Forces and then retired with the Rangers in 05. this is not a movie or a video game and its not all the glory that you might be thinking, we are the silent hero's often times never heard of, doing a job that few can do, and never looking for fame. so if you think you have what it takes......then good luck.

Answer 2

First of al you play too many video games. You should read more books. Secondly you cannot just join any special operations organizations, in any branch. First you must pick a branch which will suit your individual needs, desires, goals etc. Then you may TRY OUT for their respective SOG groups. Navy Seals, Army SF, Army Delta, and so on. Lastly all special operations groups are swimmers. They all scuba, and they all jump out of Airplanes. If you fear either of those things, then you may not be cut out for that sort of work.

Answer 3

david eg is right all special forces recruits must be able to swim. also splinter cell(the video game is where u got this idea im guessing) was not about the army it was about the NSA. of coarse there not gunna say yea we have operatives spyin on other countries so no one really knows if they exist.

Answer 4

david is correctin his facts. I believe the CIA works with Spec Ops in some capacity. The Spec forces are very talented people, they are very intelligent and physically fit.

Answer 5

if you can't swim then you don't need to join. do something else. you can't just join, you have to apply and be selected, be screened physically and mentally.
