2/sce  snakes

The Snakes are primarily a planetary surface Force Reconnaissance unit.  Comprised of small teams operating independently of supply (or higher-level command), Second Surface Combat Element specializes in reconnaissance, infiltration, sniper missions, and sabotage.  Lightly armed, Snakes use concealment and stealth to achieve their missions.  After coming into contact with 2/SCE, one enemy installation referred to them as "Ghost Knives," and the nickname stuck.  Individuals applying for 2/SCE must be capable of enduring the most demanding environments, often for weeks or even months on end.

2/SCE Commander:  Lt Col Solis A. Blackburn
