He says "Elite Recon Unit".
Obviously, Tears of the Sun and even Blackhawk Down must be Hollywood action movies and no one manages to understand the reality level in any of the two movies.
So, Reconnaissance means to collect information about enemy positions. That needs as Infantry the ability to sneak very close to the enemy, observe the enemy and retreat without being spotted.
You don't talk, you don't march. You feel and hear. The wind carries sound differently and sight is very different in a clear full moon night. You read signs, try to understand how something fell into its position and when that might have happened.
Or you jaywalk through a wrecked village like other go shopping in New York, just open carrying military guns.

To be honest. Considering that they move and act like a regular infantry unit, I do wonder if they are performing a SS like frontline tasks of ending retreats the very illegal way to enforce moral at the front.
If that is true, but only than, I strongly encourage everyone capable to crack related computer networks to identify all personal and kill them as soon as back home. Where ever that was. When ever they get there.

And spread the news...
PS: Why the Russians would not attack them to enable a retreat? Well, sometimes they will. This way they can be certain to create staffing issues. Like, wounding a soldier causes more bound personal and higher spendings than a corp. That is not the dark side of war. That is just the sober calculation, resource management and estimations part. The dark side is "information extraction" and illegal "retaliation" actions.
