Green Berets Hijacked WiFi To Control Home Security System Then Vanish In Mock Raid


Green Berets also used electronic warfare gear to eliminate evidence of their activities during the realistic infiltration and raiding exercise.

Since the late 2000s, this music video has been the centerpiece of online pranking wherein people are tricked into viewing it via bogus hyperlinks or other means, which has become known as “Rickrolling.” It is unknown whether or not Army Special Forces soldiers included this as part of their larger “cyber disruption” of the faux enemy network. Back in 2021, the U.S. Army’s 1st Special Forces Command (Airborne) notably released a white paper that included a very relevant fictional vignette describing how Green Berets might even conduct such operations targeting major global competitors like China outside of the context of an all-out shooting war. The scenario involved Army Special Forces soldiers surveilling a Chinese construction project in a foreign country and subsequently helping local partners discreetly “recover” blueprints showing secret plans to enable the site to be used for military purposes.
