It is timely that I am just finding this thread as my wife only recently asked me whether the show truly mirrors life and, if so, how comes it is on tv. Couldn't answer her question, but I do have Haney's book and echo all that has been said here regarding the stroking of his ego and seemingly detailed illustrations of what should be a closely-held group. Above being said, I don't recall him identifying himself as SF. I definitely recall him talking up his Ranger days, but can't recall a mention of him having served in SF. Assume he must have stated this in other channels?

Let's just say that's there's more than one soldier on this board that has served in the same unit as eric haney and the crap portrayed on tv is as real as most urban legends.

It seems eric haney has not "denied" the fact he's not or has ever been a Special Forces soldier when asked by the media. I take it he does not care to set the record straight either.

He's not the only one making money off the reputations of Special Forces soldiers.

Can you say Why he didn't go onto a 18 MOS?

Who said that he didn't want to, but couldn't hack it?

We have pretty high standards.

Not sure that Mr. Haney would make the grade.

I see..Thanks for the Clarification;)

I never doubted you Guys had the highest of standards..

"Who said that he didn't want to, but couldn't hack it?

I don't understand. He made it into "that" unit, but he possibly couldn't hack as a QP? So does "that" unit have lower standards.

I know for a fact that some unit members attempted SFQC and failed. We will leave it at that.

eric haney has never been or ever will be a Special Forces soldier.
