America's Special Forces: Can They Do The Job?

I found this in a box of papers I was going through this afternoon, so scanned and saved it. I thought some would enjoy the read as many of the QPs here were in the 'Pipeline' during that time.

America's Special Forces: Can They Do The Job?
USNewsWorldRpt, 3 Nov 1986

You took a copy of US News and World Report from your unit dayroom and still have it?

What is the statute of limitations for that anyway?

It was the HHC Dayroom and I was the HHC CDR - the 1SG and PSGs got to keep all confiscated Playboys and such.

All purchased with Unit Funds.

I'm guessing that doesn't happen anymore.
