Role of Korps Commandotroepen
Korps Commandotroepen is an extremely capable and experienced unit, as it is an exceptionally "original" unit. Unlike many prominent special forces units in the world, often modelled upon the British Special Air Service (SAS), the KCT however, stands on its own, forming the doctrine centre for special operations in the Netherlands, and providing "internal" training for its operators, and "external" training for other (specialist) units within the Dutch armed forces.

Famous quotes containing the words role of and/or role:
“Where we come from in America no longer signifies—it’s where we go, and what we do when we get there, that tells us who we are.
The irony of the role of women in my business, and in so many other places, too, was that while we began by demanding that we be allowed to mimic the ways of men, we wound up knowing we would have to change those ways. Not only because those ways were not like ours, but because they simply did not work.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
“American feminists have generally stressed the ways in which men and women should be equal and have therefore tried to put aside differences.... Social feminists [in Europe] ... believe that men and society at large should provide systematic support to women in recognition of their dual role as mothers and workers.”
—Sylvia Ann Hewitt (20th century)
