The November 2008 attack in Mumbai, India, should get everyone's attention. It was a well planned, tightly coordinated, extremely violent attack on the center of India's financial and entertainment industry. Ten terrorists, operating in small teams of two to four men, entered the city using a small boat and unleashed 3 days of hell. The small group caused massive chaos, killed over 130 people, and added fuel to an already volatile situation between two neighboring countries. Their tactics were similar to a military operation - hence the description as a "commando style" attack.
Let's first make a few points about the attack itself, then the response, then look at some considerations were it to happen in the US.
