Rapid reaction force

Rapid Reaction Forces staging area at Camp Buery, Kuwait, 2005

Rapid reaction force is a military unit that is considered an armed military combat platoon in the United States of America, and is capable of responding quickly to developing situations. Rapid response forces have equipment ready to respond to any type of emergency, usually within ten minutes or less, although this depends on the unit's standard operating procedures. But it can be said that the Rapid Reaction Forces are a cavalry unit in the army.
