http://www.army.mil/article/137107/NC_Guard_activates_third_special_operations_forces_unit__steps_up_partnership_with_senior_commands_a/
RALEIGH, N.C. - The North Carolina Army National Guard welcomed its newest unit of quiet professionals during an activation ceremony at the Claude T. Bowers Military Center drill hall Oct. 18, 2014. The Special Operations Detachment, which supports and augments U.S. Special Operations Command elements as required, adds another Total Army capability to the N.C. Guard's ready units throughout the state. "The addition of the of the SOD, coupled with the two Special Forces companies currently in place and in close proximity to Fort Bragg ... means North Carolina now has the ability to accomplish worldwide missions," said Army Brig. Gen. John Byrd, the NCNG's Assistant Adjutant General for Domestic Operations. Fort Bragg, long known as the home of the U.S. Army's airborne and special-operations forces, is home to the U.S. Army Special Operations Command and Joint Special Operations Command, and is located one hour south of Raleigh. The SOD's mission is to provide planning and mission support to special-operations forces. |

This actually makes a decent amount of sense since NC (Ft. Bragg) is home to SF anyways. Standing up a guard unit there gives the SF guys who are leaving active duty a place to go.

So what does SOD-X do that SOD-G or SOD-J doesn't do?
The rest of the SODs are aligned with a TSOC. And anyone comparing these units to SAD have never worked with a SOD. The unit is designed to augment the J Sections in SOF C2 units. |
