I am not bitter towards them. I pity them for their lack of originality and that they feel the need to rest on someone elses laurels.
This is actually even sadder than some 15 year-old kid poser. These guys should know better. Very insecure.

Deja Vu.......................as in supplying the entire U.S.Army with black berets ?
Do the conventional Army soldiers even feel any better with a black beret than before ? Is thier spirit somehow lifted to a higher standard ? and are there any meaurable quantified studies that have shown that U.S. Army men and women feel more proud with the dawning of the black beret, or have they worn it with a "I dont really deserve this" attitude ?
Personally, I'd feel like a cheap "KNOCK OFF" if I were wearing a green beret assigned to any other unit within the military arsenal.
In the end, it's thier headgear for garrison duty. If they feel better with it on, then have at it, but some standards should be kept to certain lineage within the special operations forces, if they are actually part of SOCOM.
I guess next, the Marines of MARSOC Det 1 will want thier "LONG TAB" on their left sleeve just as they whined about not having a Trident when they supposedly were going to become SEAL team 10 (Never happened)
