Review the concept/purposes of FID (we used to call it IDAD when we were doing it) and ponder how effective this guy might be in such a role.

And so it goes...

Richard's $.02
The vilage elder is a prettyt sharp guy.
The SFC...not so much. Unprepared and ill trained to deal with locals and frustrated by the situation.
The Translator is useless.
This video illustrates the difference in training, mindset and mission between SF and conventional troops.
FID ain't for amateurs.
