The Kommando Spezialkräfte (KSK) (English: Special Forces Command) is the special forces military unit and a large brigade-level unit of the German Armed Forces (Bundeswehr) for special operations and commando warfare, reconnaissance, counterterrorism, combat search and rescue as well as military advisor. The KSK reports to the Rapid Forces Division (DSK) and is stationed in the Graf Zeppelin barracks in Calw, Baden-Württemberg. The British Special Air Service (SAS), the United States Special Operations Command, and the GSG 9 of the German Federal Police (Bundespolizei) served as models for the formation and alignment of the KSK. The KSK has received decorations and awards from NATO, the United States, and its affiliates. KSK operatives have taken part in joint anti-terror operations, notably in the Balkans and Middle East.
