Robert O’Neill Former Navy SEAL: A Silent Hero Speaks Out

Navy SEALS are considered silent heroes because they keep all missions top-secret. SEALs jeopardized their life to keep Americans and our United States of America safe. And, on some high risk missions they know it could possibly be a one way trip. Missions of stealthfully going into countries without permission are putting their lives in harm’s way.

I don’t know how former SEAL Robert (Rob) O’Neill actions of speaking out survived being accepted or condone by his SEAL friends. However, he felt it was the right choice for him to make. He is the SEAL who Killed Osama Bin Laden by his version. There are others that claim the same deed.

Rob was a leader, a SEAL, a trained warrior of action and he has the medals to prove it. He has 52 decorations: two Silver Stars, four Bronze Stars with Valor, a joint Service Commendation Medal with Valor, three Presidential Unit citations, and two Navy/Marine Corps Commendations with Valor.

Rob O’Neill met and spoke to some families who lost love ones in the horrendous September 11, 2001; America’s greatest heartbreak. And, for other countries who had love ones working in the ‘Twin Towers. 


Rob stated, the hardest part of being a Navy SEAL was kissing his young daughter goodbye before he left on a mission; because it could be the last kiss. 

He was a SEAL for 17 years serving his country and protecting our homeland. He began to feel complacent about being shot at and this is when he decided to leave the Navy. Rob was given an honorable discharge, but lost his pension.

He helped start a charity for veterans who are in transition from the military to civilian life. He did this because of the trials he experienced in his transition from the Navy. 

The name of the charity is: Your Grateful Nation Org.; which helps veterans who served this nation to keep Americans and Our Homeland safe.

SEAL Team 6 Member Not Surprised Taliban Took Over Afghanistan

There is a lot of controversy about a former SEAL telling anything while he served and after retirement/discharge from the Navy. A Code of Silence is their bond: “
not advertise the nature of my work, nor seek recognition for my action."  

However, didn’t the Navy break the ‘Code of Silence’ with their participation and collaboration with Hollywood producers in the film ‘Act of Valor’ (2012)?

Then, the Navy cannot point a finger at Robert O’Neill because three fingers are pointing back at them: 1.) *Starring Quote: active duty U.S. Navy SEALS and U.S. Navy Special Warfare Combatant-craft Crewman: Unquote. 2.) In my research I found the Navy actually used this film as a training tool. 3.) Did the Navy break the ‘Code of Silence’ first?



A Great American We Need More Men Like Him.
Therefore, it could be said the Navy is gagging at a Gnat (an infinitesimal insect) and swallowing a camel. And, since I am not in the Navy, but my father was---and I honor and respect this branch of military as well as the all others. 

However, I do not like it when a veteran SEAL is spoken about in a negative way. Anyone, who does not or does agree with what Robert O’Neill is doing---please leave a comment. I appreciate it.

A Navy SEAL Dies in Raid---American Doctor Rescued


It is a tragedy anytime an American is killed in a foreign country, and it is heartbreak for America and the family of any service man who loses his life fighting for our freedom or rescuing an American hostage.

However, this time a Navy Seal with Special Operations-- Twenty-eight-year-old Petty Officer 1st Class Nicolas D. Checque, of Monroeville, lost his life in this rescue mission in Afghanistan while securing the freedom of Dr. Dilip Joseph an American doctor working with Morning Star Development. The United States of American has lost another son---a hero whose light shines brightly in our hearts tonight.

The Taliban released the two Afghan workers who were abducted with Dr. Dilip Joseph about 11 hours before the Doctor was rescued. The Taliban asked very little for the Afghans who worked with the doctor, but they did ask for $100,000 for Dr. Joseph.

At this point one would ponder that no Americans are safe in Afghanistan, because the Taliban is using this for hunting and abducting any American for financial gain for their terrorist organization.

The people of Afghanistan as I have surmised from my research are very appreciative of the Morning Star Development because it helps and teaches the Afghan people so they can take the place of volunteers which are mostly Americans.

However, I suspect there are Afghan spies that send information to the Taliban on who, when and where these American can be located. So the threat is on as far as I am concerned.


Taliban lost 6 of their group in the rescue of De. Joseph---however, this will not deter them. I know the Morning Star Development is for helping the Afghan people and their families in health care, education, agriculture and small business.


But Americans need to be on alert that this is a bad time for them in Afghanistan---and this is my opinion from my research of current events. I know how dedicated these employees and volunteers are there helping the Afghanistan people, but it is very dangerous for Americans and for the ones who will have to rescue them.


My heartaches for this fallen hero he gave his life to save another American.

Navy SEALS Update on March 1, 2012


On August 6, 2011---Thirty (30) Americans, including 22 Navy Seals, who were largely from the Seal Team 6, were killed when their Chinook Helicopter was shot down by insurgents.

It was stated over the news channels these were the same 20 Navy Seals who killed Osama bin Laden.

However, the Taliban happily claimed the deadly deed as their own, but U.S. officials stated it was insurgents, as the team was on their way to help troops who were engaged in a fire fight.

 It was alleged that the team included seven Afghan Army Troops, three Air Force air controllers, a dog and his handler, an interpreter who was probably a civilian, and the helicopter crew.

 I do not believe this was just an act of war—I believe this was a planned retaliation, and someone sold our American Seals out. Have we heard anything in the news afterwards? No, and I bet we never will, because it is another cover-up, and only time will tell.

I pray for their souls and their families, and I hope one day they will find closure.
