not true
the work to bridge the gap between regular infantry and spec ops on the lines of u.s army rangers had begun well before even the talk of cpec came to fore. The result being LCB.
The Div. raised for the protection of cpec is not all lcb but has elements of lcb.

Captain Muhammad Iqbal Khan Shaheed
❤

Pride of SSG 3 Commando (Pawinda) Battalion, ASC 56 SnT Bn, Army and The Nation.

Honorable Captain Muhammad Iqbal Khan Shaheed, Hilal-e-Jurat was a gallant SSG Officer, who embraced martyrdom over an altitude of 21,000 feet at the world's highest battle zone 'Siachen Glaciers' on September 25, 1987 while defending the motherland, to be immortal.

His body remained missing for 11 months in snow, finally recovered in action and buried on 6th August 1988.

Captain Muhammad Iqbal Khan was awarded the Second Highest Military Award, *Hilal-e-Jurat* by the Government of Pakistan while he was still missing in action.

May Allah SWT grant Him Highest Ranks in Jannah

Ameen.
 
Our spec ops organization is almost like UK SAS
SSG is Tier-1
Zarrar is like the Special Projects Team of Pakistan Tier 1
And the other units act like Mountain, Boat, Amphibious, Mobility Troop
Everyone is trained in everything but is devoted to only some scope of warfare...

Pakistan Army has a strength of about 654,000 . About 1000 personnel apply in each batch for Special Forces and 80-100 recruits pass the Selection and Training.
