The seal of the CIA, in which the Special Activities Division is a part of.
The Special Activities Division is an echelon of the United States Central Intelligence Agency that is responsible for carrying out black ops and covert missions by it's highly trained personnel.
The division provides an alternative for the President of the United States when military or diplomatic actions are unsuccessful or not viable. Many of it's missions under taken include raids, sabotage, ambushes, and assassinations of high value targets or political leaders as well as unconventional warfare and intelligence.
Personnel chosen for the Division are from every branch of the United States special operations forces. Their numbers are far less than many of the other special forces units, but their advanced training makes up for ther lack in numbers.
The CIA's formal position for these individuals is "Paramilitary Operations Officers," with every member requiring to have a bachelor's degree as they are still members of the CIA. These operatives are trained in every form of covert ops.
If they are compromised, the United States can and will deny any relations to them, making the U.S. in no way responsible for the operative's actions.
The Special Activities Division is a faction featured in the singleplayer campaign and through Downloadable Content in the multiplayer of Battlefield: Bad Company 2.

General Braidwood is the commander of the SPECACT Division. He recruits Bravo-Two Charlie after the mission Cold War, where the squad recovered a "fake" compound of a superweapon that the Russians were building. He sends the squad to Bolivia to find Agent Aguire, while giving them a USB drive with information about the weapon.
The squad is later tasked with finding Arkady Kirilenko after downing a French weather satellite and finding Aguire's intel on what is to be revealed as the Scalar Weapon and the project's leader Kirilenko.
Once Bravo-Two finds Kirilenko in southern Chile, Sweetwater discovers he had a shipping manifest for the Sangre Del Toro, a freighter that went down in 1949 off of the coast of Peru, but somehow wound up in the middle of the Atacama Desert like many other ships. The squad heads to the desert in search of the compound needed for the Scalar Weapon and finds the ship and the compound after triangulating it position as well as documents detailing Operation Aurora.
After giving the compound to Aguire, he then betrays the squad, giving it to Kirilenko who then kills him as he is no longer needed. After Flynn is blown up in his helicopter by an RPG, Bravo-Two move through Medellín, Colombia in search of Kirilenko and the Scalar Weapon. They find that it is located on an An-225 after it was test-fired.
They board the plane before it takes off and destroy the weapon with explosives before it could be activated. They also succeeded in killing Kirilenko while free falling after they were forced to abandon the aircraft. After landing in Texas, the squad is soon met by Braidwood who inform them of Russia's ploy to invade America through Alaska.
