I have no reason to "slam" Mr. Ventura as I'm not well read on him, or his actions, alleged or otherwise. But, the fact is that he was UDT. That has been verified by other SEALs. UDT members are essentially absorbed into the SEAL community for various legitimate reasons. I believe the author has lost credibility -- not because of his conviction to the issue -- but because he acted forcefully on something that needed no action. That, to me, is a waste of exposure.
