Marine Forces Special Operations Command (MARSOC) is the United States Marine Corps component of U.S. Special Operations Command (USSOCOM), officially established in 2006. MARSOC traces its roots to elite Marine units involved in special operations dating back to World War II, such as the Marine Raiders. Its primary mission is to provide tailored, scalable special operations forces capable of conducting direct action, special reconnaissance, and foreign internal defense worldwide. Since its inception, MARSOC operators, known as Raiders, have played key roles in the Global War on Terrorism, conducting missions in Afghanistan, Iraq, and other regions.
