77th Special Forces Group Airborne

The **77th Special Forces Group (Airborne)** was one of the original Special Forces units of the United States Army, established in 1953 at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. Initially tasked with unconventional warfare, counterinsurgency, and foreign internal defense missions, the group played a pioneering role in developing Special Forces doctrines during the early years of the Cold War. The 77th SFG(A) trained extensively in airborne operations and worked closely with allied and partner nations in various training exercises and advisory capacities. In 1960, the unit was inactivated, and its personnel and lineage were reflagged to the newly activated 7th Special Forces Group (Airborne), continuing its legacy in modern Special Operations.
