The Commando Parachute Group (French: Groupement des Commandos Parachutistes, GCP) is a unit of elite pathfinders within the French Army's 11th Parachute Brigade (11e BP). These pathfinders are paratroopers drawn from the various regiments of the brigade who then undertake GCP training and must pass various requirements. Referred to as "commandos paras" (para commandos), they numbered less than 250 men in 2015 out of the more than 8,000 paratroopers serving in the 11e BP. Although not part the Special Operations Command (therefore not a French special forces unit), the para commandos of the GCP are trained to be special operations-capable and sometimes undertake such missions.

| - Le Groupement des Commandos Parachutistes (GCP) est une unité spéciale composée de détachements de régiments appartenant à la 11e brigade parachutiste. Ses effectifs sont donc répartis entre les différents régiments de la brigade. Ces commandos forment des groupes de chuteurs opérationnels susceptibles d'être parachutés en avant des troupes afin de marquer des zones de parachutage pour le gros des troupes. Ils effectuent des missions commandos parfois complexes mais n’appartiennent pas aux forces spéciales. (fr)

| - The Commando Parachute Group (French: Groupement des Commandos Parachutistes, GCP) is a unit of elite pathfinders within the French Army's 11th Parachute Brigade (11e BP).

Although not part the Special Operations Command (therefore not a French special forces unit), the para commandos of the GCP are trained to be special operations-capable and sometimes undertake such missions. The GCP also has what can be considered a sister unit within the French Army: the Groupement de Commandos de Montagne (Mountain Commando Group) or GCM, which is part of the 27th Mountain Infantry Brigade. While the GCP members are exclusively selected from airborne regiments, GCM commandos are drawn from the French mountain units, notably from the Alpine Hunter battalions. (en)
