Speaking of myths that may or may not be true, I believe I read somewhere once that the Pentagon has a series of dioramas depicting certain declassified operations.
The medium of those diorama was allegedly 12" GI Joe. I cannot find any evidence of it now, so maybe I drempt it... |

Amazed you say you've never heard of them in real life when they're the ones who raided the home of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi a couple years ago leading to his death and it was in the media that Delta led the op.

Yes, but they were recently supplanted by Omicron Force.
Stuff that doesn't exist? Are you suggesting that the US government does not employ a unit comprised entirely of ninjas?

Delta Force is real and acknowledge at this point. When I worked for the Government I was told by some people who should know that Delta Force is basically a more highly trained Green Beret unit that is on call 24/7/365 and can deploy anywhere in the world ASAP similar to how Seal Team 6 is just a more highly trained SEAL Team that is on call and deploys at a moments notice. Both teams are tasked with the highest stakes missions and does stuff other teams don't do. Watch Black Hawk Down. That was a major Delta Force operation. Also, one of their first operations, Operation Eagle Claw where they tried to rescue Iran Hostages, there was just a 2 hour documentary on History Channel last year called "Desert One." It was really good and had lots of former Government officials openly talking about the operation and Delta Force. P.S. While looking up the name of the History Channel documentary I came across this wikipedia page and at the bottom it says this: "This incident (Operation Eagle Claw) is referenced a few times in the G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero comic book, in particular as the source of the injuries sustained by the popular masked character Snake Eyes" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Eagle_Claw |

You're right I forgot about that really recent OP. That was the one with the dog that took the guy down right? Then Trump invited the Dog to the White House and was petting him. LOL! Totally awesome!
