Has anyone else seen the "Devil's Brigade" in the Italian Campaign?

[Styles McBitchly]

On one play through I ordered a US Special Forces unit and got a unit called "Devil's Brigade." Then on the other play through they don't show up. I can't tell if there is anything special about them besides having a dialog with the American general.

Does anyone know how/when you get them and if they are better than the standard SF unit?

Thank you to anyone who replies and add me if you wanna play.

The first American Special forces Company you order, not the one you start with is always the Devil's Brigade. They have some missions just for them and special dialogues that's all

Huh Interesting, I tried it again but the came out as normal SF. I'm thinking there must be some check point that must be met. It's too bad they didn't give them some special abilities or something different in combat.

Quite late to the party, but so far i managed to reproduce the event with 100% success by ordering the Special Forces Company at Bari everytime. Don't know if it is connected to the territory or the point of time in game.

I believe it only works if you call them in at Salerno or Bari and it appears to be mapped game creation to one of those ports. Sometimes its Salerno sometimes its Bari.
