And then get divorced a couple of times and live in your van traveling around giving shooting lessons. To each his own.

Great content but listening to him talk is like pulling teeth. Great story but damn, where is the chase and how do we cut to it?

Nicholas Irving on Delta Force Kidnapping Venezuelas President 💯 Top U.S. Special Forces: Delta Force (1st SFOD-D): Primarily recruits experienced operators from Army Special Forces (Green Berets) and the 75th Ranger Regiment. They are renowned for precision, high-value target missions, and extreme secrecy. SEAL Team Six (DEVGRU): The Navy counterpart to Delta Force, also Tier 1, specializing in maritime, undersea, and high-risk counter-terrorism missions. Tier 1 Units: Both Delta Force and SEAL Team Six are the pinnacle of U.S. special operations, often working together on critical, national-level tasks. While Delta Force is frequently cited for its elite, versatile capabilities, other top-tier units like SEAL Team 6 and the 24th Special Tactics Squadron are considered on par, with selection depending on the specific nature of the operation (land vs. maritime).

The Special Task Force of the Capital Defense Command is an anti-terrorism unit and a special unit that subdues and arrests violent incidents. Counter-terrorism operations, security of key figures, arrest of violent military criminals, hostage rescue and relief activities It is said that they are made up of the most elite soldiers who undergo extremely intensive training. Those eligible to apply for special rentals are those aged between 18 and 28 years old, who have a physical level of 1 to 3 as a result of the military service examination, and the physical requirement is 168 cm or more. Corrected visual acuity 0.8.

The Special Mission Unit of the SDT Military Police Corps is one of the most elite units in the Army, comprised entirely of veterans.

SRS THROWBACK EPISODE 15. In this episode of The Shawn Ryan Show, I sit down with former SEAL Team 6 / DEVGRU operator DJ Shipley. Shipley served 17 years at the highest level of the U.S. military as a Navy SEAL Tier 1 operator. He joined the Navy at just 17 years old, worked his way through the SEAL Teams, and ultimately earned a spot at Naval Special Warfare Development Group. This is one of the most detailed, firsthand combat account interviews I have ever conducted. Shipley’s experience and perspective are unmatched. Shipley is also the founder of GBRS Group, a tactical training organization staffed exclusively by Tier 1 operators, and GBRS Group Clips, a company producing one-of-a-kind skateboards that double as works of art while employing only Gold Star family members—families of service members who lost their lives in the line of duty. Enjoy the show.

🇺🇸🇮🇷 OSINT analysts tracked 63+ military flights heading to the Middle East this week. Flights originated from Hunter Army Airfield (home of the 160th Night Stalkers and 75th Rangers), Naval Air Station Oceana (home of DEVGRU/SEAL Team 6), Cannon AFB (Air Force Special Operations), Hurlburt Field (AFSOC headquarters), and Fort Campbell (5th Special Forces Group). You don't airlift from every Tier 1 special operations base in the country simultaneously for a conventional deployment. The destinations are equally telling. Ovda Air Base in Israel and multiple Jordanian staging bases, putting elite units right on Iran's doorstep. The 82nd Airborne announcement was the headline. The real story is a massive JSOC package moving into position for something the Pentagon hasn't publicly acknowledged yet. Whether it's Kharg Island, Iran's buried uranium, or something else entirely, the people who get sent when the mission can't fail are now in theater. Source: TheIntelFrog

JAY CAL Arrested by his own government (our government) A highly decorated former British Special Forces operator who served in the (SAS) A Royal Marine Commando. Over an 18-year career, he completed 11 combat deployments across major conflict zones including Afghanistan, Iraq, and North Africa. He holds the unique international distinction of being the only British SAS operator to serve as a "Green Team" instructor for the U.S. Navy's elite DEVGRU (SEAL Team Six). ARREST:👇 In 2022, Cal and his team were ambushed, he returned fire, protecting his team, neutralizing two enemy fighters who were wearing suicide vests. Despite drone footage and the testimonies of 50 personnel on the ground supporting his actions as within the rules of engagement, Cal was later subjected to a highly controversial military police investigation and arrested on allegations of murder. Following an agonizing three-year legal battle, Cal and his team were completely cleared of all charges and vindicated.

🇺🇸 15 years ago today, a small team of Navy SEALs flew into Abbottabad, Pakistan and changed history. One of the operators from SEAL Team 6 broke his silence in 2012 to recount what actually happened inside that compound on May 2, 2011. The mission that ended Osama bin Laden took years of intelligence, minutes of execution, and one of the most rehearsed insertions in special operations history. No leaks. No failures. No second chances. The most wanted man on the planet was gone before sunrise. Source: 60 Minutes

Inside SEAL Team 6 Former DEVGRU operators talk about life at the highest level, where constant pressure and repetition push performance to the limit across multiple combat deployments. Operations are described as calm and deliberate, built on precision and discipline rather than the chaos often shown in movies. Everything is methodical, controlled, and practiced to the point it becomes routine. What stands out most is the level of professionalism and the bond between the men who operated in that environment. A rare look inside one of the most elite units in modern warfare.
