Pedro Nelson Galindo
Got this from Robin McCauley
From a friend in West Africa, seeking Bona Fides on this guy…. LTC (R) Nelson
Galindo.
His note to me….
I have a guy over here that is working on my contract that claims to be a
retired SF Lieutenant Colonel. He claims service with 10th Group, then several
joint tours with JSOC and the Pentagon. He has stated that most of his service
has been in a reserve capacity but does not claim service with either 19th or
20th Groups.
His name is Pedro Nelson Galindo. Goes by his middle name. Age is approximately
55-60 y/o
He blouses his civilian pants into his air force colored boots, wears a tightly
rolled boonie, a tied bandanna around his neck and a huge bowie knife. On his
Camelback He has prominent displays of an SF long tab, SF Branch Crossed Arrows,
HALO Jump Master badge, and silver jump wings. He is the driver for our survey
teams and doesn't leave the vehicle but when he goes out, he wears a machete on
his back like a ninja.
Bottom line...he doesn't really carry himself like any retired SF LtCol. I have
ever met.
Can you point me in any directions to get confirmation on this guy?
Can you help us out?

Nor working SF LTC(s). Most are seen hanging around the coffee pot with the CSM. They're easy to identify...
Left hand in left front pocket, right hand holding coffee cup, logo out, (MFF, SF Crest, or CDQC class date, etc). Whenever I've seen them in such posture, I tended to run the other way and avoid the area altogether. Occasionally, I heard, "Sergeant, I need to see you in my office."
It was a 50/50 chance something good was about to happen.
Popcorn ready!!!

p.s., How do qualified guys get those OCONUS assignments? I need something, 1 Feb to mid May.

Me too
I got two or three emails about this a$$ clown this morning also. Glad it is already posted so I didn't have to start it.
Wonder if anybody knows anything?
I especially liked the pants (blood diamond pants obviously!) tucked into USAF boots and the "Tightly" rolled bonnie hat.
Classy move Maverick!
