nice work - better make sure we don't have this go to a Rush or Drudge w/o having our facts squared away...
No SEAL in their right mind would take the chance of being put on the SEAL Wall of Shame. If he did have a name change, he'd go all the way back to BUD/S to make sure that he could never be put on that Wall.
He would have made sure to tell the AP that he had a name change, all SEALs are very aware of AuthentiSeal and the WALL OF SHAME.
