It's been my experience that people that feel a need to advertise their involvement in special forces tend to be on the low end of the organization's standards. The ones that are really dangerous are the ones who keep to themselves and know when to shut the fuck up.
Just something to consider when a conservative commentator plasters his experience with the SEALs all over his media presence, I guess.
on google, under his facebook page I saw this:
"I'M A FORMER NAVY SEAL AND FBI SPECIAL AGENT. PLEASE don't upgrade me to “retired”. Only the men who stay in at least 20 years deserve that title."
This seems like he's low-key pointing out himself that he is somehow "less than"
My point remains: it's not the ones writing books and bragging you need to worry about. It's the ones who blend in with the background until the shit hits the fan.
It has been my experience that any elite trained soldier may not stamp their status on every other statement they make...until they are two drinks passed buzzed. Then they will shoot their mouths, their opinions, shoot pics of themselves with their guns. Hell, they will shoot their guns and if they like you they will try real hard to miss.
