Every service has it’s “Glory” units - the ones that they always make movies about... for example, Army has the Special Forces and Rangers, the Marines have Force Recon, Navy has Naval Aviation and Submariners, Air Force has Pilots, Coast Guard has Rescue Swimmers, etc. Space Force has... well, TBD.
Remember though, not everyone is a shiny Hollywood hero...

Air Force has Special Operations. Way before any other service is on the ground they were already there. How do you spot targets for the fly boys?
