I've worked in both public and private sectors. For what this guy did, he deserved being taken care of by his goverment. Unfortunately there comes a point in one's career that working for the government becomes more of a game in terms of trying to survive until retirement. The trick is to get to the finish line regardless of what they try to do to you. However, better that than some of the frickovers that can happen in private sector. There are at least some protections in the government sector. You just have to learn them and learn how to use them. Many times careers do not end on the most glamorous of circumstances. However, between the beginning and end there are some high points that can always be cherished. That said, careers are like anything else. They go up, they go down, and then they end. Then you move on to the next chapter of your life.

I can see why. You killed one of the most famous terrorists in history, but you can't tell anyone about it? I obviously understand why you shouldn't say anything, but human nature makes you want to tell people what you did.

Yes really. Master Chief Tommy Raztlaff from Green Forest Arkanas. Went to school with my younger brother from kindergarten right up to senior in high school. Great guy, left behind a beautiful wife and 3 kid. And yes he told us that those guys swore they'd never talk about it. He wouldn't even confirm whether he was there or not, not every member of Team Six was obviously. Look like some things have changed

Can't believe he went on a website to get some facts on the guy to bolster his lie. Bold move for sure.

Lies? Why on earth would anyone lie about such a thing? I graduated from Green Forest High School in 1989, my brother and Tommy in 1995. My sister graduated with Tommy's sister in 1992. Tommy's mom , Nancy, was the President of the school board when I graduated and signed my diploma even. LOL email me raorbackfan502001 if you want more info seriously man, Tommy was a good guy, I wouldn't lie about him at all.

Less than 24 hours after the book’s existence was first reported, Fox News revealed the author as Matt Bissonnette. Defense Department and military officials later confirmed his identity.

This may sound callous, but this guy's post-military story is literally no different than hundreds of thousands of soldiers who have done their duty and then left the service.

i'll agree to a point what he did and what 99% of people in the military do is nothing alike. that's why he's spec ops and they're not

The better question is, if your story is true and you know it to be true, why do you need anonymous message board posters to believe it?

The guy made a simple statement like everyone else in this thread. It was the onslaught of people calling him a liar that prompted him to verify what he was saying Lot of people on here make themselves look like fricking tools by attacking anyone with something interesting to say
