There is debate that he was a SEAL here in San Diego.
but was really UDT
Sean just announced Ventura coming on after the break. Off he goes!
I read he was UDT, but when they later merged with the SEALs, and the UDTs were allowed to call themselves SEALs.
His real name was Jesse Janos, went through training with class 58 and chose to be in UDT 11 instead of SEAL Team, He never set foot in Viet Nam. Never saw combat and is not authorized to wear a combat action ribon. Did one tour with UDT-11 stationed in Subic, then got out.
Those are the facts.
