Badges of Secrecy

Dude should really get serious and reflect on amending The Jones Act but he doesn't have the credibility for it and would make serious citizens with serious questions appear as crazy as he seems to be,
this guy is working on a PHD, where? West Virginia?

These patches are so bogus, they are not the sort of thing anyone in military would wear, but I can tell you I had a fashion jumpsuit in the 80's which had cub scout patches and other silly things, people responded in the most bizarre way, one man said I should be shot for impersonating the female astronaut the teacher who had such a sad and tragic death (I certainly was not I admired her bravery) another man on a Guam where my former spouse was an Optometrist in Private Sector -identified himself as a military officer and said he would put me int he brig, - It was just a silly blue denim jumpsuit which I thought resembled
mechanic overalls and I realized I was a walking ink blot for some very very rigid and strange people.
Believe me miliraty guys wouldn't ever go for anything humorous. Kathryn

What kills me - is that in the late 80s I was a military pilot flying a normal AH-1 helicopter near some ranches out west. The next day on the local news station they had a story on "Black Helicopters," what a farce! They interviewed some rancher the day before because he called the station to make a complaint about the black helicopter flying near his ranch house (we were 500 meters from the house laterally). Of course the other pilot who I was with called me to see if I was watching the news and of course I was. The funny thing - everyone thinks its some conspiricy. When really, it was what I call, a steam powered helicopter. Nothing fancy, dials and all, just as simple as a Cesna. I hope the people at Newsweek get a life.

What is the patch for? Unity, Identification, and Personality. Does it "give away" secrets? NO. Is there something possibly encrypted in the patch? Possibly, but again, it would probably be someone's clever slur, or ego, but nothing of any value. The biggest secret is that there isn't really some kind of huge conspiracy at all. There is, no doubt, secret technology and that sort of thing that I will never know anything about; However, everything is very much a more basic and fundamental operation. All this sci-fi, hollywood, cult stuff is overblown and simply not an accurate portrayel, what so ever, of what is really going on and has gone on in the world. It is basic, fundamental, but clandestine operations. You'd be sooo disappointed when you got in there. You'd be like, this laptop is a piece of goddamn junk. You want me to work with this ***? Then, one day, a colonel would look at a sparrow, circling and perching, and say simply... "pretty pretty bird" Then, it would dawn on you, that we have been living, for a long time, on the verge of destroying the earth. It is a miracle that we haven't.

I agree with Joey. Why in the hell would the issue patches for stuff like that. Thats just stupid, we have some of the smartest people in the world working in the co-op, classified area of the governemtn and you'd honestly think they would make patches to identify what you have done. That would be patching a bullseye on you. DUMB!

This guy is a complete idiot.... Anyone who pronounces Lejeune as "Lagoon" shows his lack of military COMMON knowledge. To anyone who buys into this man's ideas I am very sorry, but he is yet again just another Star Wars junky who wants to sound important and in the "need to know". How anyone thinks that the U.S. Military would be ignorant enough to create a patch that gave away clues to something they wanted to keep secret, I have no idea. The U.S. Military is smart enough not to leave a paper trail on anything they want kept secret. I am sorry but they have no bearing. (IE military patches are online and not off center, unlike the ones we are shown in this video that can easily be made at home). Is the Military hiding things from us, maybe. Do we need or really want to know about them, of course not! Let's let the govt. do it's job, and scam artists like this need to let it be.

I am so glad this guy wasn't my high school history teacher or I'd be dead right now from a self-inflicted gun shot wound to the head. As if his subject wasn't lame enough, he has a voice only comparable to Ben Stein on the Wonder Years. What a jackass......

I agree with Joey. Why in the hell would they issue patches for stuff like that, that is just stupid. We have some of the smartest people in the world working in the military and you honestly think they would do this?

Iam very dissapointed that Newsweek and MSN would even acknowledge this Bullshit. Having been a member of numerous operations for the U.S. and other allies I find this very offensive. N.O.Y.F.B. seriously?
Really? The men ans women I have worked with would not be caught dead wearing a stupid patch. We wear our patches within us. In the memories of those lost who are never openly acknowledged. People who gave their lives for the belief and faith that we all served a higher pupose. ........Goat Suckers? I don't know of anyone that would be called "chupacbra" There was ! unit but they were not flyboys. I hope that anyone who reads this knows that this guy is full of crap. Please Support our troops. Not only the ones you hear about but those you don't know about but are glad they are there.

Too Funny! I wonder how much his publisher paid him to write this book!
Please do not buy this book- save your money and fill up your gas tank!

This is complete and utter Bullshit. I hope that most of you who read or hear this Know that ANY black ops do NOT carry any records of their operations. I have been on many "black ops" in both the U.S. military and other Known military forces and NONE of the Personel I have worked with would ever where a stupid patch like these shown.
If you look @ these you know that "goat sucker" means "chupacabra". No one would be called a goat sucker.
N.O.Y.F.B....... seriosly? Really?
I am very disappointed that MSN would even put this on a lead story.
If you want to report about "black ops" then please talk to the men and women who are involved in it. Otherwise this is all just propoganda.

yhgtbkm!! WTF--- The military, CIA, FBI, DEA, ect ect are full of acronyms and symbolism!! Just like the nose art on the aircraft! We call our smoke pits- Area 51- IT's A SPOOF guy-- WE have a sense of humor!!
DO NOT take it Literally!

Hmm...interesting, I wonder which one of these highly honorable patches commemorates the spooks who killed John F. Kennedy??
