Finding the Best

January 19, 2017 By dickcouch

My wheelhouse is special operations recruitment, assessment, selection, and training.  Regarding the vetting and training of SEALs, Green Berets, Rangers (from the 75th Ranger Regiment), and Marine Raiders, it’s been an ongoing part of my life’s work; I’ve written six books on the subject. …Read More…

January 13, 2017 By dickcouch

Those of us with close ties to the Special Operations community, and this author counts himself in that number, are digesting an article by Matthew Cole in the online, investigative journal, The Intercept.  The article details extensive inappropriate conduct on the part of Navy…Read More…

Women in Combat—The Saga Continues

December 7, 2016 By dickcouch

I have often written about and posted articles on this site regarding women in direct ground-combat roles—Army and Marine infantry, armor, and artillery billets.  And of course, in special-operations ground combat.  All this may be for naught as there’s an expectation that the new…Read More…

Let’s Pause for a Moment

November 9, 2016 By dickcouch

Amid the focus on the election and the prospect of a new Commander-in-Chief, let us not forget that we are still a nation at war.  Or perhaps more accurately, we are a nation who has a number of its Special Operations warriors committed to…Read More…

Guns or Butter

November 7, 2016 By dickcouch

Changes in administration are difficult for many in government service and perhaps more so for those in military service.  For them, it’s also a change in Commander-in-Chief.  A question on the minds of great many in uniform has to do with policy.  How will…Read More…

September 16, 2016 By dickcouch

The SOCOM Commander, General Raymond “Tony” Thomas, in a recent statement made it clear that there were simply too many SOF operators, primarily Navy SEALs, writing tell-all books: “We’re hurting ourselves with these movies and books.”  General Joseph Votel, who Thomas relieved at SOCOM,…Read More…
