God I hate NTC.
All things considered; 17th ASOS should be able to put a better video out.
I would rather see some video showing them in with the Rangers or an ODA.
That said, it's a nice video and I am glad the 17th put it out.

All their money went into important stuff, like beer.
Actually it's an Army produced video. The credits list it as being produced by the 55th Signal Company.
Here's a link to their official webpage, along with the video I posted, there's also an unclassified unit history, and some photos

And here's their recruitment PDF for ALOs with info on their training, and that they'll be moving under the control of the 724th STG in the future.

Interesting they only support the Rangers (per their unit brief).
Guess the STS's support the SFG's.

"The squadron provides terminal attack and liaison services to the 75th Ranger Regiment and its 1st, 2nd, 3rd and Regimental Special Troops Battalions, and the 1st, 3rd, 5th, 7th and 10th Special Forces Groups. "

Story from 2008, and the current webpage only indicates support to the Rangers.
According to the unit history, (I can post that separate link to it, if anyone's interested), they no longer support the SF Groups.
