Navy SEAL Training & Athletics Part 1

You may recognize A.J. James from the movie Act of Valor. Here he breaks it down for those interested in becoming a SEAL and discusses his wrestling background and how it helped him overcome some of his challenges with swimming.

The First Gays In Special Operations Units

Today I was reading about CNN’s Anderson Cooper coming out and had to admit it didn’t change my opinion of the guy.  He still has had one of the best shows on cable news. I’ve worked with his production team on a few stories, including SEAL snipers, and they’re top notch. Anderson’s got more balls […]

Spec Ops Shooting Radicals In The Face

I believe in being respectful of others beliefs and culture is the right thing to do. However, there are situations where you are just not going to please everyone, try this strategy and you are doomed. There are just too many extremists of all shapes, colors and sizes to please them all. Sometimes is just […]

Aerovironment’s Suicide Drone & The Future Of UAS

SOFREP contributing editor Travis Lively wrote about the Switchblade a while back.

I always thought it was silly that you can join the United States Military at eighteen (seventeen in some cases) and die for your country but cannot legally enjoy a cold beer. Thank goodness for foreign ports of call. US Marines and British SAS bring the hate to Taliban in Afghanistan. %EMBED2%

Book Review: INSIDE DELTA FORCE

INSIDE DELTA FORCE has been on my list for a while and I finally was able to take it down in two days. From the beginning, you can tell Eric Haney (Command Sergeant Major, USA ret.) is authentic and cares deeply about the US Army and Delta. My favorite part of the book is the recounting of his […]

Is The United States A Corporation Or A Country? You Decide.

We get a ton of submissions via our comms check portal but occasionally I draw some fire that catches my attention. I’m always open to dialog and good debate and I received permission from Steven to post his submission to me. I personally believe that the United States is a country in good standing and […]

1st Amendment Rights More Important Than Scum Bags Like Xavier Alvarez

I’ll be the first to admit that the Stolen Valor Act was poorly written and too broad in that it infringes on our 1st Amendment rights as American citizens. Personally, I’d rather have a slew of scum bag military posers than continue to see our Constitutional rights withered away by career policy makers in Washington.  […]
