Special Operations Squad

The Special Operations Squad (特別作戦班) was an elite squad hand-picked by Levi.

They were considered the most elite squadron, having a total kill record exceeding 200 and were capable of killing nigh any Titans in their way. They had the ability to sync with each other to coordinate their attacks without talking. They had the mission to protect Eren Yeager from any Titan and the secret objective to lure the Female Titan into a trap, but the mission failed. All members of the Special Operations Squad except for Levi were killed by Annie Leonhart.

After the events of the believed Breach of Rose and the Massacre during Eren's rescue, Levi states to Erwin Smith that he has formed this Squad anew with its members now being the remaining Soldiers of the 104th Trainees Squad Top 10 in order to bring Eren into a suitable desperate environment. Whether or not Connie Springer is a member as well has yet to be shown.
