[edit] Merge with Joint Special Forces Support Group

Sure, why not. It's most likely the same outfit that it speaks of. --Jpfagerback 15:25, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

I think it could be the same outfit. however I'm not 100% sure but I think it probably is. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 195.137.109.177 (talk • contribs).

Yeah Its definatly the Special Forces Support Group. Before it was given its official name it was described as being similar to the US rangers and many people including the media jumped on it as the UK Rangers which is now known to be inccorect. So it is definatly the Special Forces Support Group. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 195.137.109.177 (talk • contribs).

I also agree with the merge, both articles talk about the same unit. --Nkcs 19:24, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

Merge it. There is no 'SFSG' - only the 'JSFSG' which is a Battalion plus sized Tier 2 organisation based around 1 PARA. It also includes a Company of Royal Marines and approx 30 RAF Regiment types to guard things. Darth Doctrinus 00:16, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

Yes, it should be merged. However, the unit is called the Special Forces Support Group, not Joint Special Forces Support Group, as it clearly says in the MOD releases. Hammersfan 14/05/06, 17.30 BST

Sure, whatever. I understand that everything has to have some sort of reference, so you are correct. Perhaps I should have said 'we call it the JSFSG.' Kind regards. Darth Doctrinus 19:00, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
