For the first time the Philippines activated the integrated SOF command

"Philippines Activated The Integrated SOF Command"



DSA 2018: For the first time the Philippines activated the integrated SOF command,

The Philippine Armed Forces form a new joint integrated command, called the AFP Special Operations Command (AFPSOCOM), on April 6.

Deploying them under one command for the first time, AFPSOCOM combines existing special forces units from the Philippine Army, Philippine Navy (PN), Philippine Marine Corps (PMC) and Philippine Air Force (PAF). As an integrated command, it reflects the US Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) to some extent.
