Wait...
You mean you've never heard of a Special Forces Warhead Diffusion Specialist?
Do I have to explain everything to you gents ???
Diffusion is the net movement of
anything from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration. Diffusion is driven by a gradient in concentration.
In the context of Special Forces - posers, frauds, wannabes, and men that drive minivans are greater in number than men who have been specially recruited, tested, assessed, and trained to be Special Forces Soldiers.
In areas with high civilian populations, there is a MUCH bigger difference in the ratio of minivan drivers to non-minivan driving Special Forces Soldiers resulting in a steeper concentration gradient. The steeper the concentration gradient, the faster
diffusion will occur. This is why we see such an increase in operators of Ball's caliber when there are fewer REAL Soldiers in the area to slow the rate of poser-diffusion.
Then again, the possibility still exists that "Diffusion" was just a poor word choice for a guy that was holding himself out as having expertise with Explosive Ordnance Disposal in addition to his claims of being a Special Forces Solider (happens all the time in the business of poser-to-SF diffusion).
Maybe he was just suggesting that he knew how to
defuse warheads.
Ironically, Warhead is also the name of an EXTREMELY sour hard candy that will make your face pucker up.
