He even admited he got out because there wasn't any action.

SEALs who haven’t lied about their service (to my knowledge): John B Allen, AKA MrBallen: incredibly honest and humble about his time as a SEAL and became famous for his talent as a scary story teller, not talking about how much of a SEAL badass he is. Shawn Ryan: May have platformed some of the dishonest ones, but to my knowledge has not lied about his service, and at least comes off as humble and a good guy. Ephraim Mattos, who runs a non profit to protect and give relief to people in conflict zones. David Goggins: Never claimed to be some war hardened, hero Navy SEAL, and rose to fame from his hard work as a runner, not BS war stories. I’m sure there are others, but those are the only ones I can think of that aren’t obvious liars or narcissists.

Slabinski claimed he checked and validated Chapman was dead, when he was not dead but temporarily incapacitated. So… imagine you are from the SEAL community, is that a story you want to cover that would resurrect a stain on the reputation of not only the Navy but integrity issues in the SEAL community?

He took part in several operations, including the rescue of hostages in a hijacked Sabena airplane in 1972. In the same year, he was cited for outstanding operational command by General Mordechai Gur, Chief of Israel's Northern Command. After his discharge from the IDF in 1972, Mr. Netanyahu served in the Yom Kippur War of 1973 and was promoted after the war to the rank of captain in the Reserves.” It seems that those who know the secrets , stay in power in Israel !

@Brotherken1234 No one is lying that's 100% true. Israel ain't like the US all their PMs are elite military officers going all the way back to BenGurion who was not that guy. Ehud Barak, Ehud Olmert, Bi Bi. Netanyahu and his brother Yonatan were all Captains in Sayet Matkal which is IDFs Tier 1 Delta Force Type Unit. It's is in fact why Netanyahu is the way that he is. Not because of serving in that unit Ehud Barak and Ehud Olmert were both Left Wing Labor Zionists and Bi Bi is very Right Wing Likut. He is like he is because of his individual experiences. 1. His older brother and hero/idol was killed by Palestinian Terrorists. 2 He was also wounded by them numerous times. 3. He went to school in the US at Harvard and MIT and has a deep and abiding understanding and dislike for the left as a result and understands their notions and views are bad for Israel.

The truth will always come out to the light of day. Just seeing and hearing guys do this is sickening and doesn't make sense to me. I hope more speak out about this issue, it is concerning and doesn't feel right. As a concerned citizen, I hope something gives, it almost has to.

As a uneducated civilian I have to blame the general public because people like myself assume that anyone with a SF title has been on a buttload of missions and killing thousands of the enemy in hand to hand combat really because we've seen too many Rambo movies. I 100% admit this. I've had a best friend who was in the USMC tell me that I think way too highly of Marines. He was a diesel mechanic in the Corps. My father was drafted into Vietnam in 67' and I've learned about a lot of close combat that he was in but not from him. He won't speak and that's my cue. My grandfather (WWII Army Master Sergeant) always told me "If they have to brag, they have nothing to brag about. So it's idiots like me out there assuming that anyone with military and especially elite military are hardcore war machines when some have not been to war. I don't do this but I'm sure people ask stupid questions like "How many people have you killed" and things like that. So there's a expectation out there too.

Yeah I used to think that too, until it got too obvious that none of these guys are as honorable or trustworthy as you would think the military would require them to be. Turns out that integrity and character aren't top priorities in the SOF world, and that's just the nature of the game. Can't really expect guys who spent years killing for a living to end up well-adjusted straight-shooters. These guys have all had their brains scrambled for a decade or more, why anyone is surprised when they lie, cheat, steal, kill and/or do any number of other antisocial acts is crazy. The military turns these guys into murder machines and then just, cuts them loose after the contract is up. The fact that there's no re-assimilation program for retiring SOF vets is a massive public safety oversight.

Everyone in his unit has died from suicide or cancer. He also died of throat cancer as well, and he never smoked.

He could be discharged, maybe not a dishonorable but still some kind of discharge. There’s so many possibilities.

Then you got the POGs that lie about being on the line. When I was in college, I swear every vet I met was a scout sniper, a Recondo, in bat, or a long tabber. I swear I've never met a truck driver or a supply guy since I got out.

"Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned" is the most commo version on the quote, actually adapted from the full original late 17th century version: ""Heav'n has no Rage, like Love to Hatred turn'd, Nor Hell a Fury, like a Woman scorn'd."" It's not from Shakespeare like most people assume but William Congreve in his play "The Mourning Bride". The usage of "hath" had largely fallen out of style by the time he wrote in the late sixteen hundreds, so it was not used in the text, instead going with "has" as in modern English

I joined the US Army when I was 18 years-old for 4 years. By 22 year-old after I was out of the US Army, I would have made up some stupid stories about my service because I was a insecure young man. Now that I'm in my 40's, I wouldn't do that because I've matured a lot in the last 20 years. It's people over 35 making up stories that are the most annoying to me. How did they fail to mature after 15-20 years? They must be narcissistic personality disordered if they can't mature.
