Navy SEALs, Delta Force, and SOCOM general - The most "Special" groups in the U.S. Military

I think he was in the ISA or Intelligence Support Activity, not Delta. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intelligence_Support_Activity
Yeah, I got you, edited my post. He's still part of JSOC. They obviously used him because he knew Arabic as part of joint JSOC operations, next to Delta. And he doesn't present himself as just a friendly 'terp in that book cover.

By the way, look at the amount's of names the ISA goes by just on Wikipedia. Holy shit, and I thought Delta had an issue.

The United States Army Intelligence Support Activity (USAISA), frequently shortened to Intelligence Support Activity (ISA), also known at various times as Joint Reconnaissance Evaluation Group (JREG),[citation needed] Mission Support Activity (MSA), Office of Military Support (OMS), Field Operations Group (FOG), Studies and Analysis Activity (SAA), Tactical Concept Activity, Tactical Support Team, and Tactical Coordination Detachment,[1] and also nicknamed "The Activity" and the Army of Northern Virginia,[2] is a United States Army Special Operations unit which serves as the intelligence gathering component of Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC).[3][4][5] Within JSOC, the unit is often referred to as Task Force Orange

I love that r/JSOC has become a drama fest. Some users should consider hopping over here. And both Brent and Josh Martin are cringy (At least Brent doesn't joke about eating ass) and I also respect Brent more for his podcast and his web of lies video. If he's using alts on Reddit and also reading this, he should verify his account, and give his side of the story. Either here or on Reddit. (But Brent, hop in over here, because Redditors are fags, and you coming here would make them seethe like you wouldn't believe!)
 
Without powerleveling too much I'm not an American. Cultural Sensitivity training was 2 days out of all of build up training. All it really did was make them seem like savages. As well we got a cheat sheet of 10 words and like three phrases. The Provincial Reconstruction Team(PRT) to my knowledge got more, but it was just a few weeks, and those were the guys going into villages and "talking" to people. It was disseminated down that we only need to know what is required to be effective at our job(Which coincidentally was the aforementioned sheet), and that going out of our way to learn the language from a non-approved source, could lead to incorrect information which could lead to "misunderstandings." Furthermore, we were told and it was doubly stressed for the PRT to only speak through our translators to avoid "misunderstandings." One instance of this caused an officer to take an axe to the skull, so everyone was skittish about letting the subhumanoids(military members) talk to the Afghanis.

That wasn't even the wackiest stuff we got. We were ordered not to talk to any american wearing a pink belt, as that meant they were a hooker. There were parts of camps that were designated no go zones. A bank of porta potties that were designated the "Marine Sex Toilets" and we were banned from being near them. In all honesty their thinking was, if you die, then the CO isn't in trouble, if you die oddly or do something stupid, then the CO gets into trouble.

That makes more sense. I get why they said that; I've met lot's of people who developed some strong opinions based on their own misunderstanding of words or interpretations or even their own inability to properly use an interpreter.
 
Okay, props to you guys for finding the things you've found for this thread.

Just reading the newest posts, it is insane how many former members of Delta and ST6 are just openly out there commercializing the supposed 'quiet professionals'. Bullshit like this is how you get a Gallagher, and bullshit like this is how Gallagher gets away with it.
 
lol, I caught the patch. SEAL team 6 Silver squadron. I can smell the roids from my screen. Very tough, showing the hatchets. Nothing more brave than hacking up a dead body who can't fight back.
Comments say Delta D Squadron. Not sure if that part is true, but the HK416 accessories and suppressors are Delta specific. More pics from same event

Is that a greek letter Delta patch on the back of his helmet?

Ahh, gotcha. Saw that head patch from afar. Very similar to the Silver squadron one. Thought it was a variation. By the way, to Delta Force, never forget, Shoot fast, Eat ass.

Edit: @Green Seppuku Good find! That's the "Valknut". It's a Viking Norse symbol that is used now by the far right. In Ukraine far right battalions and in Europe far right people had lots of Valknut tattoos. He may be just LARPing with Viking symbology, or much more likely he's dog whistling his politics.

This is a little off topic, but it's a palate cleanser from all the shit-baggery. It's an interview (fucking long but interesting) with Brad Thomas, a former Ranger and Delta guy. He talks a lot about Mogadishu and the path to Delta back in the day. He dodges most of the questions about Delta.

The striking thing is that he's much more enthusiastic talking about music and his band than Army shit. At one point he says that leaving the military wasn't hard for him because he didn't define himself as an operator but as a musician.

The archive didn't work, but there's nothing compromising about this that makes me think it will disappear.

Here's Brad Thomas, with Chris VanSant and Tom Satterly on the left. Honestly, a breath of fresh air to hear someone not moaning "Woe me, I've got trained 15 years to be a soldier, but nobody taught me how to be a civilian." narrative that one hears all the time.

Edit: Updated the OP with the backpack, and other stuff just realized what was the music in that Insta post. It was GOOBA by 6IX9INE. Jesus H. Almighty.
A Louis Vuitton backpack is a great use of funds.

For the longest time I thought that the tacticool hatchet was bullshit but now I see it is literal kosher kit for CAGGOON operators.

From the looks of it he's just there to look cool anyways so the backpack is essential gear. Ergonomics > economics.
 
So guys, I did the naughty. May Allah forgive me for what I'm about to tell you, but I went to Reddit. Adam Gamal, who's going to put out his book "The Unit" was doing an AMA, and I thought it was a good thing to give him a fair chance at answering some relevant questions.

I think I was very fair, polite and my questions were very relevant to today's use of Spec Ops and their place in society after the GWOT disaster. I didn't even hide who I was and signed "JTC, Justtocheck" at the end.

So I gave him the benefit of the doubt with softly, polite and relevant questions, and what do I get? Cucked. His ghostwriter Kelly (who made typos answering) only answered my number 2 question about if the book is ghostwritten and why. You'd think that'd be easy enough to answer. But she gave me an insane answer of "He decided to put my name on the book, too, so I could take the blame if we screwed it up :biggrin:"

What the actual fuck? Maybe is some sort of joke (which is badly done) but if it's real, this Ooperator doesn't even want to take the blame if he makes a shitty book and blame it on a woman? And of course all my other questions about GWOT, spec ops, his future grifts career, how the book differentiates from other books about GWOT ,and the cover being similar to other media were not answered.


Also, as the spook he is, he showed his true colors "I hope the book will help with recruitment in the entire army" He said in an answer about recruitment, not addressing the underlying problems. But of course, he answered "HK 416 or M4?"- "I used only M4 I loved it, light, precise and reliable because what's most important is muh dick rifle even though we lost the war"

Okay "Mr. didn't write his own book" wish you the best of luck. I'm skipping this piece of masterful American War literature for now.
 
I always thought one of the cool things about Delta is that almost none of them write books. Eric Haney was an exception, but his book was necessary I think. Some of the allegations he laid out deserve some space here for sure.
It's kind of disappointing that the taboo on writing books or marketing Delta membership appears to be completely gone.

Edit:
SGM Eric Hany said that he was tasked with leading Contras or whatever in Central America to track down a rogue group of Sandanistas. When they had them surrounded, Haney shot their leader. The leader ended up being 'Keekee Saenz' (not real name), a Green Beret that Haney had met during Delta selection. Haney said that was told Saenz had defected to the Sandanistas, but he believed he'd been working for the CIA the whole time.
According to wikipedia Saenz real name was something Baez, and his family had confirmed how he'd died. Haney's team or squadron leader was interviewed in retirement and said Haney made the whole thing up.
I've seen fuck all about this over the years, you'd think it would be a big deal.

Adam Gamal said it best. Books, podcasts, etc. are a marketing and recruiting tool first, and a moneymaker for unit members as well. It's in the interest of none to keep it taboo or to do any sort of introspection on the GWOT. Otherwise, Gamal could have GPT'd some basic bitch answers to my questions to him in the AMA in an instant, but he apparently doesn't even want those questions even be relevant or mentioned in the public consciousness.

Edit: @Poki Moki The show "The Unit" made an episode about that. Season 1, episode 11, "Exposure"
