No Easy Profit. Pentagon Likely To Sieze Funds

I recently wrote an Op Ed for TIME and arrived at the conclusion that No Easy Day has a silver lining; it will be the tipping point for the SEAL community to reign in their PR machine and let the guys go back to being quiet professionals.  The stage is being set to discredit Bissonette […]

News: Iran & North Korea Sign Technology Agreement. More Nukes Please

While the SEAL community eats itself alive from the inside out, other important news is happening in the world. Looks like Iran wants a little help getting weapons grade nuclear material and who better to help than Kim Jong-un, The Supreme Leader, at least that’s what he tells other people to call him although, I’m […]

New Zealand Troops Honoring the Fallen With A Māori Warrior Haka

The U.S. could use an American Indian version of this for morale. If funerals were like this for guys in the Team I’d have attended. Haka (singular is the same as plural: haka) is a traditional ancestral war cry, dance or challenge from theMāori people of New Zealand.

People […]

(Chapter 2) The OBL Aftermath

With the 9/11 attacks being the story of the last decade, the raid that resulted in the killing of OBL may be the big story of this decade. Before SEAL Team Six (correctly known as {redacted}) inserted via classified stealth helicopters and killed HVT #1, the White House, the Pentagon, and the CIA had a […]

(Chapter 3) Who is ‘Mark Owen’?

SOFREP knew who the real author was as soon as the press release hit, but we chose not to disclose his name in order to protecting anyone associated with him. His name is no secret anymore and will forever be pervasive to events associated with the OBL raid. Real Name: Matt Bissonnette Born: Alaska Age: […]

(Chapter 4) The Hidden Motive Behind No Easy Day

Looking for the true motive behind No Easy Day begs the question: Why would any SEAL knowingly ostracize himself from his own community?

(Chapter 6) The Ultimate Consequence

Grandstanding so soon after a sensitive mission of this nature may lead to SEAL Team Six (redacted) relocating, a change in unit designation, and perhaps restructuring from the ground up in order to flush out whatever problems the unit has been having. The timing around the publishing of a blow-by-blow account of the raid so […]
