While I was looking for some old friends on FB last week, I ran across Mr. Edward G. Davis. He listed himself as being retired SF, so I sent him an invite here. This is the resulting conversation.

i was the medical detachment 11 grp from 97 till 2001went sf in 96 was assighned in 97 .
Ricky Winters October 24 at 5:03pm Oh, so you weren't really Special Forces. You were assigned to a Special Forces unit. The way I read your profile, I figured you had been an 18C and maybe reclassed to an 18D, retiring from SF. .

16 Delta is a medical tech sergent and i served as medical consult on several missions that wer classifiedand yes i was special forces from 97 till i was forced into retirement after seveing 15i went to special forces school for three wks and did that and went on to delta school and completed that and was emediatly assighned to 11grp .
Ricky Winters October 24 at 7:20pm 16D is not a Special Forces MOS. Special Forces "School" is not three weeks long. The 11th SFG(A) was inactivated on 15 Sep 1995. The regular army medical MOSs used to be 91 series; they are now 68 series. In order to BE Special Forces, you have to have completed the "Q" course. A Special Forces unit is not going to take a "med tech sgt" on any mission, let alone a classified one. A Special Forces Medical Sergeant has much more training and experience than any med tech ever would so there would be no need for them. Explanation?
I haven't seen him reply to my last transmission yet.
