During the war in ’Nam, the Navy’s Riverine Forces was the most highly decorated unit to serve during the Hell that was Vietnam.
3
This unit earned their accolades the hard way…
4
…1 out of 3 men in this unit lost their life.
5
Today the U.S. Navy has modeled the current units after these Vietnam living and fallen Heroes.
6
Simplifying the Riverine Force units, they work as a joint force element of the Navy Expeditionary Combat Command (NECC).
7
The Navy has folded the teams into the Coastal Riverine Squadron (CORIVRON).
8
These joint units are jacks of all trade with Special Forces guys from the Marines (MSRON) to Navy SEALs…and they can include individuals with specific skills such as EOD for dealing with explosives in the mission’s path.
9
That’s the short version of these quiet elite teams.
