I believe the Air Force has "Combat Controllers" and "Pararescuemen".
The Army has The Special Forces. The Army Rangers, and the Airborne.
The Marines are considered elite as they are. But they do have the Marine Recon and Scout Snipers, and probably some others.
Of course our Army can't hold a candle to the Canadian Army, or the English Army. wink wink, inside joke to those in the know

Marines have several. Names range from Marine Special Operations all the way to ones that we know more about like Force Recon and Scout Snipers.
Air Force doesn't list anything but that sort of makes sense. As far as I know they specialize in air lifting soldiers to theaters, not doing anything particularly crazy when they get there.
The wikipedia has some decent information on the branches and their special forces.

Airforce has two. One is basically for pilot rescue operations and the second is flying in a C-130 gunship (although it's more special operations than being elite).

The Air Force I know have Pararescue troops and Combat Control. I do not know about the USMC.

the army actually has the "rangers" and the "green berets" are marines. and as for the air force, i believe the elite unit is the para-rescuers, but there may be another unit that is considered it.
