I love how everyone in the military claims to be special forces. LOL.

It gets worse after you get out too. Everyone claims they were in special forces.

Seems their mindset changed after Vietnam.
I am a a third generation US Marine. My grandfather planted the seed that became my father and then died in the South Pacific. My father had me, and when I was nine months old he died in Vietnam. I could only imagine what my mother thought when I joined the Marines.
