Polish GROM

Ah those, Jedi wizardry is beyond my level of comprehension. I went to a public school you know.

As did I, Sparky.

Did you ever stop to think I didn't answer your question for a reason? Now you want to be a little "sporty" in your response?

A couple of random thoughts on those pictures:
- I'll guess/ hope that they were from a PAO's website and as such are officially released.
- Regardless, they are probably up on a half-a-dozen websites by now and there's no taking those images "back."
- I took one look at the picture and knew that he is a skydiver; don't worry about how. I'm thinking if your job is so secret that your face can't be out on the Net you probably shouldn't be so readily identifiable.

Aren't pictures on the Net cool?!
 
Most pix are eighter from DWS (SOF Command) or made by private photographers from military/news media sites.
The rest is more or less a product of their imagination. Or lack there of.
GROM was never camera shy.....despite what its two former commanders liked to say.
The SOCOM "show and tell" in Tampa this year is a perfect example of such policies.

As with most of my countrys Special Operations Forces, photos of GROM are rare, especially those taken during missions/operations.
These two were taken in Ghansi not long ago:

Provides a small up-to-date glimpse into the Units equpiment.

Still, one must ask him self: how is it that a Tier1 SOF/CT unit is being photographed, and photos posted on the internetz for the world to see....

Let me take you back to 2 Sep 2010 Rav.

I wonder why he decided to not write this book under his real last name, while its not a big secret. Even above photo contain his last name(I mean unedited version). But ohh well, he must have some reasons. Anyway, I'm waiting for this book:)
