ODA 3333 3rd (A) SFG Coin

ODA 3333 or Operational Detachment Alpha 333 is a part of the United States Army’s Third Battalion, 3rd Special Forces Group (Airborne). The 3rd Special Forces Group (Airborne) also called 3rd SFG(A) and often simply called 3rd Group, is an active duty United States Army Special Forces (SF) group that was active in the Vietnam Era (1963–69), deactivated, and then reactivated in 1990.

3rd Group, as it is sometimes called, is designed to deploy and execute nine doctrinal missions: unconventional warfare, foreign internal defense, direct action, counter-insurgency, special reconnaissance, counter-terrorism, information operations, counterproliferation of weapon of mass destruction, and security force assistance.

The 3rd SFG(A) was primarily responsible for operations within the AFRICOM area of responsibility, as part of the Special Operations Command, Africa (SOCAFRICA). Its primary area of operations is now Africa as part of a 2015 SOCOM directive, but 3rd Group has also been involved in the Caribbean and the Greater Middle East, and Afghanistan.
