The US Military has Special Operations Forces (SOF).

SOF includes Air Force CCT and Para Rescue, various AF wings and squadrons, Navy SEALs, the Marines in MARSOC and the Army’s Rangers, Special Forces (SF), some helicopter assets, PyOps and Civil Affairs.

They all have specific jobs although some of the ground pounders overlap in some areas.

All SOF are not SF - but all SF are SOF.

Just a minor point the press mixes up a lot.
