But holy hell, he's been like a poster child of What Not To Do when leaving the military.  Going off of memory from previous times he's been in the news: Believe he elected to separate just short of 20 years, and didn't get a retirement.  Has worked a couple of random jobs, to include driving a delivery truck.  Had a brief stint as a talking head for Fox or something.

He seemed to portray his story as he singlehandedly walked into the compound and killed bin Laden, with no accounting for the huge team behind him.

Got the impression he expected to walk out the front gate and just be showered with money and praise for the rest of his life, and that he was struggling with the fact that his expectations didn't meet reality.

Especially when we all know it was actually Obama who killed OBL.

I think General  Chang knows who did it.

It's San Fran:  Had he not been ex-military, he would have been released... and charges dropped within 72 hours of getting to DA's office. 

Dude got charged DUI in his hometown of Butte MT…

got himself banned on Delta for awhile too back during the masking days.

Butte MT is a fantastic summertime OST location with great flying in all directions, a well equipped FBO, a few nice distilleries in their small downtown area and easy hikes in close proximity.  Unfortunately you'll have to watch out for the former SEAL actually asking people for free drinks because he shot UBL.

All members of that team need to be on a poster in all bars and pubs in America, especially in NY and DC.  When any member of that team walks in, they are greeting with either a tip of the hat, small salute, or a raised fist.  The bartender pours that dude's favorite (its on the poster) and sends it over with a low, solemn, "Thanks."

FOREVER!

Not that small towns will look the other way with DUIs for locals, but I'd bet that everyone in the town knows him and would more than likely give him some leeway if there were any to be given.  The fact that he was charged likely means it either wasn't his first time or the people of his home town know him and don't like him.  Neither is good...
