Special Air Service

The Special Air Service is a special forces division of the British Army. Its operatives were notable in their service in World War II during Call of Duty 3 and the modern day in Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare.

Appearances
The Special Air Service was first featured in the Call of Duty franchise in Call of Duty (1), where SAS Sergeant Jack Evans was featured as a main character, fighting with Captain Price against the German army in various situations, including the attack on the Pegasus Bridge, the sabotage of the Eder Dam, and the destruction of the battleship Tirpitz and of some infamous V2 rockets.

Then the SAS appears again in Call of Duty:United Offensive, where you play as Sergeant James Doyle. Major Ingram leads the squad.

In Call of Duty 3, the Special Air Service appears again, and this time James Doyle and Major Ingram are back, in company of Duncan Keith and some members of the Maquis Resistance(french resistance), like Marcel, Pierre LaRoche or Isabelle DuFontaine. Their objective is to "clean" some areas of enemy concentration, in the towns of Toucy, Autun, and Les Ormes(the last two are featured also as multiplayer maps in Call of Duty 3

Later in Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, the Special Air Service was a principal force in combating the Middle Eastern hostiles and Ultranationalist Russian rebels during the six-day modern day global conflict. Captain Price's four-man SAS team was critical in the US/UK peacekeeping operation, operating alongside Marine Force Recon to eliminate the Ultranationalist nuclear threat. The main character of Call of Duty 4 was "Soap" MacTavish, a SAS operative.
