Commando Operation

Japanese: コマンド作戦 - コマンドさくせん
Commando Operation
Specially trained small units infiltrate the enemy's sphere of influence and carry out surprise attacks such as intelligence gathering, rear disruption, and destruction of facilities. These units are generally called special forces. The British started it in 1940, and the United States also established the Ranger Unit in 1942. The term "commando" was given to the Boer farmers who harassed the British army with surprise attacks during the Boer War.
