The U.S.M.C. itself is considered an elite fighting force. Recon groups are elite reconnaissance teams within the U.S.M.C. There are two varieties, Recon, and Force Recon. Force Recon's missions are analogous to the U.S. Navy SEALs, but they are not under SOCOM's command. Recon operates in strictly a reconnaissance role. In todays environment of shrinking budgets, a Recon Marine must be a jack of all trades.
