The Swedish Defence Forces' Special Protection Group
Försvarets Särskilda SkyddsGrupp (SSG)
This is the new small swedish special force. They shall penetrate
enemy special forces, protect important buildings, and act as bodyguards for the Supreme Commander and
other important officers.
The difference between other swedish special forces and SSG is that the SSG
consist of only hand-picked officers, mostly from different ranger/elite
regiments, but some members are specialists without former ranger training.
This force are trained in parachuting, diving,
amphibious operations, advanced marksmanship and bodyguard service.
Because of the "officer only"-rule they are highly educated and very
well-trained.
They can, with helicopter, aircraft, boat or land-vehicle, be transported
anywhere in Sweden to complete their missions. If necessary, they shall rescue
swedish personell who get caught behind enemy lines.
All officers get a common training in
parachuting, diving, shooting/marksmanship and
bodyguard service. Then every officer get a
specialist education, for example HAHO
parachuting, explosives, sniper-shooting, use of
special weapons or advanced diving.
The big difference between other units in this
niche, like the SAS, Green Berets, or Spetsnaz,
is that the SSG do not operate world-wide. They
are especially trained for the Scandinavian environment.
