IRAN has published the names of several of the 50 Delta Force soldiers they claim to have captured during the rescue operation to extract the US airman whose plane was shot down over Iran.
They are:
Sgt. Michael Anderson age 34
Staff Sgt. David Miller age 31
Sgt. Daniel Roberts age 29
Sgt. James Walker age 33
Cpl. Ryan Mitchel age 28
Sgt. Christopher Evans age 35
Staff Sgt. Kevin Scott age 30
Sgt. Brian Taylor age 32
CENTCOM denies that any US troops were captured by the Iranians and the claim cannot be verified by independent sources.
If verified, then the "Rescue Mission" was not the "glorious success" that is claimed by the US, but an even greater fiasco than the "rescue mission" attempted in the Iranian desert back in 1980.

The entire point of basic training is indoctrination. American Soldiers are trained to kill; that’s how you protect your country when diplomacy doesn’t work.
I went to infantry basic training in 2008. Every cadence, every story, and every bit of training was focused on preparing for that.
You have to make the mental shift to prepare for combat. Talking about it is how you accomplish that.
