fight to defend itself from a Russian invasion, despite not being directly involved in the conflict.
After Russia's annexation of Crimea in 2014, a move that faced minimal resistance, the Ukrainian military began an effort to modernize its forces to prepare for possible further Russian incursions into the country. The U.S. military also quickly stepped in to help, with the Army's Green Berets taking on a critical role in training Ukrainian forces.
While elite military units such as the Navy SEAL teams garner widespread attention, the Army's Green Berets are fanned out across the world helping armies prepare for wars similar to the one now being fought in Ukraine. This work is typically done quietly, something Moore said Green Berets prefer. Moore said Green Berets are a"force multiplier," improving the combat capability of the international forces they work with. He stressed that they are not about"raids and ambushes," but about having an"unparalleled understanding of the place" where they are operating.
