What was said
"Every time I thought I figured something out, some— I'd learn something else that would throw that off. Like, I, I literally have no idea. And I can tell you that guys that have been there 20 years, we've all— look, I'll straight up say we're all curious and trying to figure it out."
A former Delta Force operator reveals that the selection process standards remain completely unknown even to operators who served 20 years in the unit. Only one person at any given time knows the complete selection criteria, with approximately 10 people total having ever known the full standard throughout the unit's history. This creates what the operator describes as the 'best-kept secret in the military,' where candidates and even cadre running the course don't understand how final decisions are made.
