During the [[Arcer Bush Wars|Fourth Bush War]], several important lessons regarding the employment of special forces were learned and implemented. Although the SFSG's implementation was almost three decades after cessation of hostilities, the lessons learned for a dedicated regular infantry force to provide support to special task forces was identified. Provisional examples existed such as the Royal Moorden Regiment providing several platoons in support of the [[Special Arcer Service Regiment]], however nothing was codified until 2004, when the SFSG was created by decree of the [[Government of Arcerion|Confederate Parliament]]. The SFSG supported various lower intensity missions around Ixnay during the years that followed, however its first major deployment was in support of the Arcerion military's involvement in the Final War of the Deluge. | During the [[Arcer Bush Wars|Fourth Bush War]], several important lessons regarding the employment of special forces were learned and implemented.

Under the auspices of Operation Archibald, members of the [[Arcerion Special Operations Command]] undertook a variety of special forces missions ahead of conventional Arcer units engaged in [[Operation Pullman]]. These included long range patrols and long-distance reconnaissance in lightly armoured wheeled vehicles through the Varshani outback. Usually, the infantry companies from 1 Arco Para at the time provided screening, flanking, and cordon forces for the members of the SASR and Marine Commandos involved in direct action missions. | Under the auspices of Operation Archibald, members of the [[Arcerion Special Operations Command]] undertook a variety of special forces missions ahead of conventional Arcer units engaged in [[Operation Pullman]].

The second major operation in the SFSG's history is as part of ongoing counter-terror and counter-insurgency operations near Oakham in the [[Northwestern Border Security Zone]] (NWBSZ). There it has provided support to the Task Force deployed conducting raids, reconnaissance, and support to civil authority missions in the region. During this time, the SFSG was involved in numerous missions against compounds or villages associated with [[Varshan|Varshani]]-aligned insurgent groups attempting to infiltrate through the Telekonese and Kelekonan borders with Arcerion. The Arcer government confirmed that on at least two occasions Joint Terminal Attack Controllers (JTACs) from the SFSG conducted air strikes on insurgent groups Northwest of the Innis River Basin. | The second major operation in the SFSG's history is as part of ongoing counter-terror and counter-insurgency operations near Oakham in the [[Northwestern Border Security Zone]] (NWBSZ).
