Shortly after his election as governor, in response to a number of questions, Naval Special Warfare said that Ventura was a SEAL, citing his reserve service. Why did it do that?
A quick Google search shows that he was invited to speak at least twice at BUD/S, possibly more. If the SEAL community believed he was misrepresenting himself, why was he invited to speak?
I understand there is a petition for the UDT-SEAL Association to kick Ventura out because of his lawsuit against Chris Kyle. If he was misrepresenting his service, why did the SEAL community not ask the association to remove him earlier?
Re-reading my post of a few minutes ago, I fear I may have come off as more belligerent than I intended.
As I noted in an earlier post on this thread, I regarded the NSW comment on Ventura as authoritative. The questions I was asking were sincere. If Ventura has been misrepresenting himself, why did Naval Special Warfare embrace him the way it did, and why did so many SEALs support him until the Kyle lawsuit?
GoFU(&URSELF LOSER...
It would be awesome if they could win, take all the money he took from the widow then gave it back to her.
