His identity is supposed to be classified. The guy either wants to be famous or he's bitter because of his benefits. What's next? Is he going to hold Alcatraz tourists hostage while threatening San Francisco with VX gas?

Oh no, now people know his name, he must be so scared! But i'm glad you know his reasons, maybe next time you should jump in a helicopter and shoot raghead terrorists to prove how morally superior you are.

Appreciate everything this man did. Still… wish these guys would stay in the shadows, not out of any fear but as a matter of professionalism and principle. Seems like every wannabe non-star and career politician seeks to hog the spotlight and proclaim their own greatness these days. Why follow that path? I prefer heroes who aren’t smiling for the cameras and talking about it. Legends don’t need a movie deal to validate their deeds.

His identity is supposed to be classified.
One would think he was "supposed to be" financially taken care of by the government.
For example, 5 years service in Congress gains a pension. Now I know Congressional service is dangerous. Hell, members suffer horribly bruised egos all the time. I'm sure it is quite traumatic. But for the government to say to O'Neill, "Your service is literally worth nothing. It is worth no long term fiscal reward. It is worth no recompense at all, and you are not to profit from it after you depart the military," is incredible.
His identity is supposed to be classified?
Got it. Fair enough.
So when he seeks a job in the private sector, what's he supposed to say on his resumé? Who provides his recommendations? Look, I have zero problem with the guy's association with the Bin Laden mission being classified for his own safety. But I have a huge problem if he is not taken care of as compensation. Sounds like the Navy got tired of him, didn't find a spot for him, then just cut him loose after 16yrs in service.
If true, it's inexcusable behavior.
