I think the question is ........ simply put, does the Delta Force Group have their own flash that will distinguish them in a crowd.
I can walk down any sidewalk on Bragg and no only tell you what unit the guy is from, but the associated battalion as well.

Yes that was a good reply SR-25, because it was correct. Delta wears the USASOC unit patch and corresponding beret flash. And to correct what was said earlier, ALL of the operators in Delta ARE in the Army. Now members of other SOF can sometimes cross-train or pull TDY with Delta, but to undergo selection and the OTC(Operator Training Course) you must enlist, and be at least an E-4 in the Army, along with meeting all the other criteria. I know a few former Marine Force Recon guys and Navy SEALs and one PJ who joined the Army just to try out for Delta. From the way this guy is typing he doesn't sound like an E-6 in the Army. If he is, his lack of knowledge about his own branch of service is pathetic. I know he shouldn't be required to know about OD-D, but he should at least know that Special Forces are the guys with the green berets, and not a different unit. Oh well. HOOAH
