The Devils Brigade (also called The Black Devils and The Black Devils Brigade and Freddies Freighters, officially the 1st Special Service Force), was an elite, joint World War II American-Canadian commando unit organized in 1942 and trained at Fort William Henry Harrison near Helena, Montana in the United States.
The brigade fought in the Aleutian Islands, Italy, and Southern France before being disbanded in December 1944.
The modern American and Canadian special operations forces trace their heritage to this unit.
