Having lived on Fort Bragg myself, I know that the JSOC compound is definatly not located on Pope AFB.

It is located at Pope as well as at Bragg. (MARK S. 09:28, 17 July 2006 (UTC))

[edit] Task Force Viking

So that Rob1bureau and I do not get into an edit war ... as per my cited source (http://www.dtic.mil/ndia/2004solic/cleve.pdf) TFV reported to CJFSOCC (Combinded Joint Forces Special Operations Component Command.

Yes, but I havn't seen any reference that TF Viking is under Joint Special Operations Command, nor that TF Viking included elements of Special Mission Units. So it doesn't match what is said about TF of the JSOC :
The JSOC frequently create specialised "Task Forces" for his missions, bringing together Special Missions Units operators, other Special Operations Forces operators (mostly those listed above), and in some cases (such as many of the "numerical" Task Forces operating in Afghanistan and Iraq), CIA operatives and/or foreign special forces such as British Special Air Service and other United Kingdom Special Forces and Polish GROM. Such Task Forces operate under command of the JSOC
