Put the broad brush down, MRM, unless you have insight I don't have.

BTW, if he was in my command(s) he would not have been in the top 10. Yale doesn't mean schit in the military either. It is about the mission and a persons ability to perform it. I have found little correlation between formal education and ability to successfully carry out the mission.

My advice is to put him in touch with former SEALS and have them talk to him. I know about 50, both enlisted and zeros.

I can facilitate. Well, I'll try, not being bright and all.
