Captain,

 

I'm pleased to inform you that your company has been selected to be a part of a new joint USSOCOM/CIA initiative being formally referred to as Task Force Cobra. This task force will be comprised of Alpha Company, 3d MRB; Alpha Company, 4th Battalion, 1st SFG; a 160th SOAR Detachment, and two CIA SOG teams. The purpose of this task force is to provide a standing special operations force capable of rapid deployment across the world to conduct complex or large scale special operations missions, harmoniously with the CIA, in environments too complex for regular SOCOM conventions. The mission set that will be undertaken by Task Force Cobra has previously necessitated the creation of single use task forces comprised of forces under the same chain of command, that then interfaces with whatever CIA assets were in field at a particular AO. With Task Force Cobra you will be working alongside and through the same CIA assets in order to increase effectiveness and enable more rapid response times to global crisis. The Task Force will also be training together during downtime to maximize the effectiveness of coordinating complex special operations missions within each of your respective skill sets.

 

As part of this change you are being reassigned under Lieutenant Colonel Clark Williams who will be the commander for Task Force Cobra and will report directly to USSOCOM Headquarters. That said, you will retain your normal structure on paper as being Alpha Company of the 3d MRB for the sake of operational security for the duration of the task force. If, for whatever reason, the task force must be terminated, you will be reassigned back into your normal command structure. Additionally, as part of this change, the entire task force will be issued AOR1 Uniforms, Multicam Uniforms, and Multicam Black in addition to the regular combat uniforms patterns, to allow you to blend in with attached forces as needed and be flexible enough for any mission set needed by the CIA or USOCOM.

 

Your first assignment will be in Northern Afghanistan where Task Force Cobra has been tasked with disrupting enemy operations, establishing contact with The Northern Alliance and determining the viability of using them as allies, as well as preparing the way for coalition forces to retake the area. This operation is being labeled as Operation Bloodhound and will be viewed as a test bed to determine the initial effectiveness of Task Force Cobra. Have your company ready to move by 0300 on July 9th. You will be flown into the City of Herat and will then be forward deployed to COP Endurance where you will be briefed by the CIA.

 

Signed,
General Thomas A. Godfrey III
Commanding
United States Special Operations Command
