Without the Guard and Reserve, our active duty troops could hardly deploy.

Any information about U.S. special operations forces is highly sensitive.

As we are all aware, Special Operations Forces, SOF, are playing an increasingly essential role as we continue to fight and, more importantly, win the war on terror.

Sometimes you have to subordinate strategic considerations to tactical needs.

The Secret Service is a strange group. They don't really have a leader. It's not set up like a military. Each one is supposed to be able to act like a leader when something comes up.

Secret operations are essential in war; upon them the army relies to make its every move.

One is not exposed to danger who, even when in safety is always on their guard.

The Obama presidency has seen the U.S. military's elite tactical forces increasingly used in an attempt to achieve strategic goals. But with Special Operations missions kept under tight wraps, Americans have little understanding of where their troops are deployed, what exactly they are doing, or what the consequences might be down the road.

The Navy credits me with more kills as a sniper than any other American service member, past or present.

I think of myself as Special Forces, clearing the path for the infantry.
