yes...Green Berets are divided into five active duty (AD) and two Army National Guard (ARNG) Special Forces groups.(U.S. Army Bravo Company, 1st Battalion, 1st Special Forces Group was the unit which participated in Aero india 2015).. in US army the SF is divided according to their area of responsibility/operations or specific regional focus.
