Being highly efficient in wartime combat, the 1st SSF killed 25 enemy soldiers for every Devil’s Brigade team member who was killed in battle. They captured 235 enemy soldiers for every Devil’s Brigade team member that was captured.
They were a team of former forest rangers, game wardens, lumberjacks, northwoodsmen, hunters, prospectors, and explorers. They were activated as the First Special Service Force on July 9, 1942. Lieutenant Colonel Robert T. Frederick was promoted to Colonel and assigned to be the unit’s commanding officer by, would-be U.S. President, General Dwight D. Eisenhower.
