Navy SEALs

11 years after the attacks of 9/11 we are still struggling to properly identify and communicate threats…

Managing editor Jack Murphy (former 75th Ranger and Green Beret) and I work very hard at keeping SOFREP apolitical for a reason. We feel that it helps maintain a balanced viewpoint and keep the site’s integrity with regards to representing the Special Operations community. This is very hard, trust me. I’ve had a ton of […]

FYI-This story didn’t make The Red Circle. I was a new guy on probation at SEAL Team 3 (it’s different now, you get your Trident after SEAL Qualification Training) and serving in a support role.  Need a boat driver for a platoon training dive? “Hey new guy, get over here..”. Need another bus driver to […]

For the last few weeks, there has been a veritable shit storm of media coverage regarding the attack on the consulate in Libya, resulting in the loss of four American lives, and months of intelligence gathering (ransacked). Without question, there have been attacks from each side of the aisle as to how it was handled, […]

As the month of September comes to an end, I find myself reflecting on the events of September 11, 2001. So many things changed for America that day. Over a period of two hours, most of us watched as the World Trade Towers were turned into a pile of steel and burning debris, a major […]

Update: A US SOCOM source tells SOFREP that Admiral McRaven’s Public Affairs Officer has been in contact with the author directly, and that (apparently) no classified information has been disclosed in the memoir. We’ll see in the coming months if this proves true or not. Public and community (SEAL) perception has arguably been set by […]

As November creeps closer the media frenzy surrounding the November Presidential elections will get ugly. So, like some in the military say when at the local bar, I’m “going ugly early.” The Navy SEALs have gained a global popularity that has never been seen before and Admiral (SEAL) McRaven, the Commander of US Special Operations […]

SOFREP sources at US SOCOM say this is extremely unlikely. However, it appears the usual suspects are hitting the SEAL crack pipe for another quick SEAL fix, only this time they’ve been sold bad junk. “There have been units operating in south America for some time now but the SEALs  doing this (by themselves) does […]

“They’re Not In Hollywood Anymore”, The NBC Tag Line Goes… SOFREP Says That Fat, Drunk And Stupid Is No Way To Go Through Life NBC. WARNING: This is an extremely biased and candid review based on previews alone, and previous knowledge of the crap ethics of Hollywood. As if their shitty coverage of the Olympics […]
