Post; Delta...


Now, from what I hear the government denies the existence of Delta, but obviously they do exist. Does anybody have any articles or information on them? I would like to know more about them.

After the missions serries of 'Task force ranger' I guess the government denied the existance. My cousin had shown me an article on yahoo that had mention the denial. I guess that isn't important, i still want to know more about them.

The way I figure, if you (the government) say "no" to the question "Do they exist?", they (the ones asking the questions) can't ask any other questions because the government denies their (Delta) existance. They can't take it to the next step.

You aren't going to find much accurate information on the net, or via any other source about SFOD-D (Delta). Those who know the details, won't be talking about it .. and those that think they know, will be happy to tell you all about it (which amounts to knowing shite) . There is a short overview posted about the detachment under "Joining the Military - Who's Who in US SOF." There are a few books out .. most are full of piss and wind.

Actually the whole thing about denying Delta is kinda glorified, since everyone already knows about them...

Heres a Research paper I wrote about the unit, hope it helps...

Post; secret


The gov't says they don't exist because most of the weapons used classified and still being tested. At a mans funeral. Everything was covered up. they did not want anyone to know about delta secret weapon. It has to be denied so in the near future those i power will forget that we have them.

They didn't bury the weapon they buried a delta force soldier. The weapon was covered with a gint cloth of some sort.

Ahhh ... *wiping tears*

The DoD has admitted to the existence of CAG (SFOD-D / Delta, et al) for a bit now. It's published right in the defense budget. Why would the government go about parading it and putting it on display? Every bit of information that is released to the public is also released to our enemies. OPSEC. That's why you don't see a lot of accurate information about SOF units. As I said, anyone that knows .. isn't going to tell you, and those that don't know, will be happy to.

But man, those plasma ion rifles they have sure are cool .. I saw 'em on a documentary once. Wow!
