US Army Green Berets training Naval Infantry Marines in Mexico

A handful of U.S. Army Green Berets are in Mexico, helping to train the country’s Naval Infantry Marines. The U.S. Special Forces soldiers are there at the request of Mexico’s President Claudia Sheinbaum. The action was also unanimously approved by a Senate commission in Mexico, according to Border Report.

Eleven Green Berets from the Army’s 7th Special Forces Group will be in Mexico from Feb. 17 through the end of March. The special operators arrived fully armed but will focus on training their Mexican counterparts, according to Border Report.
