Quiet Professionals
“People sleep peacefully in their bed at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.”
– George Orwell
The Green Berets’ are the most valuable asset within the Army Special Forces. The rigorous selection process is based on an individual’s unique ability to succeed in complex environments against ambiguous, dynamic threats with minimal support. Their ability to work swiftly and quietly without noticeable presence has earned them The Quiet Professionals' moniker. This series, photographed for GQ, of the Green Berets, a once-in-a-lifetime experience, is a homage to modern heroism.
