I've known a couple of SEALs and I think you may be right. Both of them were abusing steroids and one was dealing drugs during his time in the military. He was also prone to violence.

Much like the inner workings of a meat packing plant....you got a peek at how they make the sausage so to speak and no it's not pretty.

Pretty sad day for the military but the verdict stands, Gallagher is found innocent but he is a disgrace to the service. This entire group sets a poor example for young soldiers coming into the service.


This by the way is the reason he should not have been pardoned before even standing trial.
" he was granted immunity", " Scott will now be charged with perjury for changing his testimony.'

What part om IMMUNITY" do you NOT understand?

"but he is a disgrace to the service" And you did WHAT in the service?
