Mexican special forces

In Mexico, both the army and navy have special forces groups or elite units.

The High Command GAFE is a company sized formation with no more than 150 members who are specially trained in counter-terrorist tactics.

There is also another special forces unit called Batallones de Comandos Anfibios.

These units carry out special tasks for the Amphibious Reaction Forces (Marines).

They are known to train with their American counterparts: the Navy SEALs, at the Naval Special Warfare Center in Coronado, California.
