Whit said:I can't hold my tongue any longer. Are you guys really buying this "Special Forces Cook" thing? Not to mention the changing of FIRST names for operational security reasons!?!? C'mon!!! some of these guys are playing many of you for suckers.
My two cents.

Whit said:I need to clarify a couple of things. I did not mean to imply that these knives were not going to combat theatres, or getting into hands of soldiers assigned to or attached to special ops units. What I'm saying is that these are not the soldiers who are most deserving of a handout. I've been there more than once, done they are doing, I know what I'm talking about. Some people forget about "quiet professionalism" when they stand to benefit from bragging. Most in our community are 4 time volunteers, and we do not need to throw around the names of units, people, equipment that the rest of you only know from the Discovery Channel. When people hear some of those things, they are impressed and want to feel part of the team, so they will gladly "support the troops" with a handout. I can't stress enough, what I'm saying is continue to support, but give the handout to someone who needs it!
I also received an email from the guys on the team receiving these knives. I replied telling him that I am not trying to put down him, his team, or anything they do. We are on the same team. Again, it's just my two cents, and maybe I'm not expressing it very well.
yeah that's it...Whit said:I'm not expressing it very well. .
