The Light Commando Battalions (LCB) are commando units of the Pakistan Army, tasked with special operations and counter-terrorism. Each battalion is affiliated with, but not part of, a Pakistan Army infantry regiment, instead being part an army brigade. The Light Commando Battalions play a similar role to the US Army's Ranger Regiment.

The LCB (Punjab) took part in defending military bases, which were attacked by militants on 15th August 2014. On 15 April 2015, the LCB (Punjab) held an open day for select members of the public to let them see the work of the unit, as part of a public awareness campaign. A company from Light Commando Battalion (Punjab) was assigned for the security measures of the 2021 Tour By The New Zealand Cricket Team before it was cancelled.

In June 2017, 2nd LCB (Baloch) participated in a raid, with other units, on a suspected militant base in Mastung, Balochistan.

The LCB (Azad Kashmir) participated in the Pakistan Day parade in Islamabad on 23 March 2022.
