It wasn't so much Durant, as it was a particular Delta Sergent who's name I can't remember. His name is "mud" right now, and has been for a few years, supposedly even Blackwater and Brown & Root won't touch him.

Something interest to keep in mind about him, though. His wife's maiden name was Beckwith. And if just wondered if she's one of Charlie's girls, you win the big prize. And all of this started to came out shortly before Col Beckwith died. Hmmm... I wonder if the father-in-law might have given a nudge?

And for those who don't know, Charles Beckwith was the officer who fought to get Delta founded, and was it's initial CO. He was the guy who made the call at Desert One to abort becuase there weren't enough choppers, which was before someone tried to a Sea Stallion through a Hercules. He was treated like a leper to, after he published his book.

Marchinko had peed in too many people's pools to not have enemies. Ironically, he might be one of the few operators who hasn't lost friends becuase he published- he was already radioactive.
