Marine Recon (Battalion and Force) definitely do Special Operation Missions just like any other special operations group such as SEAL, Green Beret, Ranger, Para-rescuer, Navy Combat Diver, SAS, etc.
Of course all of these different units train for different functions, hence the reason why they are not the same force, and often perform JTF (Joint Task Force) operations, in order to provide trained teams in all necessary fields.
