  SPECIAL OPS, COUNTER-PROPAGANDA, OVERCLASSIFICATION
 

The House Armed Services Committee took
a retrospective look at US special operations forces earlier this year, thirty years after the establishment of US Special Operations Command (SOCOM).

"SOCOM has a lot of missions it is responsible for, and has had several new ones added to it," said Rep. Elise M. Stefanik (R-NY) at a hearing earlier this year. "Are there any of those missions that should go away or be reassigned?"

SOCOM Commander Gen. Raymond A. Thomas was ready with the answer: "There are no missions that should go away or be reassigned."
