excerpt from my private journal as Kerry Burgess: 9/12/2006 11:27 AM
Was I part of the group that is known as Delta Force? That would make sense.
from my private journal as Kerry Burgess: 9/18/2006 2:18 PM
Then, as usual, they dumped me off at the hospital. I don’t even remember them asking me any substantive questions. That was the time the paramedic told me I had high-blood pressure as I was waiting in the ER while strapped on the gurney.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta_force
One of several operations in which Delta Force operators are thought to have played important roles was the invasion of Iraq in 2003. They allegedly entered Baghdad in advance, undercover with long hair and moustaches, along with SEALs from DEVGRU, guiding air strikes, building networks of informants while eavesdropping on and sabotaging Iraqi communication lines.
