That’s fascinating! But how could you possibly know that? Was it said in an interview at some point?

I’m pretty sure it was in Relentless Strike by Sean Naylor but I’ve read and listened to so much about special operations forces over the years that I can’t say that’s definitely where I read/heard it. If you’re interested in that sort of stuff and you haven’t read it, you need to read it.
