Of course, I'm always receptive to your opinions on this or any other non-technical subject. (Your technical comments I routinely tune out, no offense...)

I get it. LOL

This is like a comedy. I have been sharing your comments with other SF veterans... They luv it.

In 1972, I had ten years SF experience, in 2 dozen countries, seven years (by then, more later) running SF OPS overseas, and I'd been to Furstenfeldbruck (the German AF base where the killing of the terrorists occurred) a half dozen times...including a few days prior to the event.

Yet you find me unqualified or at least not technically capable to make comments worth listening to about SF Operations at the time, including what SF units and other units had the proper gear, organized units and training to take down that group of terrorists, so you routinely tune me out.

You have zero experience and no training, but have argued vociferously here about an Israeli SF unit, that did not exist at the time, being the best unit to use in the 72 Furstie operation.

In two or three of your rebuttals, you explained my experience was and is a handicap to me when evaluating combat Operations.
You explained, on the other hand, yourself being unencumbered with such knowledge and experience could certainly see more clearly to make wiser technical decisions, than I, on matters like which unit would be the best to use when attacking terrorists at a German AF Base in 1972.

You may wish I would routinely tune out your future (unqualified, therefore superior) technical comments too, but I won't.

Even Ripley wouldn't believe this saga.
