To All, Delta Force was formed after numerous, well-publicized terrorist incidents in the 1970s. These incidents led the U.S. government to develop a full-time counter-terrorism unit. Key military and government figures had already been briefed on a model for this type of unit in the early 1960s. Charlie Beckwith, a Special Forces officer and Vietnam veteran, had served as an exchange officer with the British Armys Special Air Service (22 SAS Regiment) during the Malayan Emergency. Upon his return, Beckwith presented a detailed report highlighting the U.S. Armys vulnerability in not having an SAS-type unit. U.S. Army Special Forces in that period focused on unconventional warfare, but Beckwith recognized the need for not only teachers, but doers.[9] He envisioned highly adaptable and completely autonomous small teams with a broad array of special skills for direct action and counter-terrorist missions. He briefed military and government figures, who were resistant to creating a new unit outside of Special Forces or changing existing methods. Finally, in the mid-70s, as the threat of terrorism grew, the Pentagon high command appointed Beckwith to form the unit.[10] Beckwith estimated that it would take 24 months to get his new unit mission-ready. Beckwiths estimate resulted from a conversation he had earlier with Brigadier John Watts while updating his SAS experience in England in 1976. Watts had made it clear to Beckwith that it would take eighteen months to build a squadron, but advised him to tell the Army leadership that it would take two years, and not to let anyone talk (him) out of this. To justify why it would take two years to build Delta, Beckwith and his staff drafted what they dubbed the Robert Redford Paper. In it Delta outlined its necessities and historical precedents for a four-phase selection/assessment process. In the meantime, Colonel Bob Black Gloves Mountel of the 5th Special Forces Group was tasked with creating a unit to breach the short-term gap that existed until Delta was ready, dubbed Blue Light. On 4 November 1979, shortly after Delta had been created, 53 American diplomats and citizens were taken captive and held in the U.S. embassy in Tehran, Iran. The unit was assigned to Operation Eagle Claw and ordered to enter the country covertly and recover the hostages from the embassy by force on the nights of 24 and 25 April in 1980. The operation was aborted due to aviation failures. The review commission that examined the failure found 23 problems with the operation, among them unbriefed weather encountered by the aircraft, command-and-control problems between the multi-service component commanders, a collision between a helicopter and a ground-refueling tanker aircraft, and mechanical problems that reduced the number of available helicopters from eight to five (one fewer than the minimum desired) before the mission contingent could leave the trans-loading/refueling site. After the failed operation, the U.S. government realized more changes needed to be made. The 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment (Airborne), also known as the Night Stalkers, was created for special operations requiring aviation support. The Navys Special Warfare Development Group, formerly designated Seal Team Six, was created for maritime counter-terrorism operations. The Joint Special Operations Command was created for command and control of the various counter-terrorism units of the U.S. military. The Ultimate Rig-Fix Facially Declared Illegal Rule: In a defined competitive business price tag, each price equals costs and is backed up by a simple cost paper study; each … knows his own cost. Whatever price IT is IT must equal the cost of useful labor time counted up in serving it to People. It is the core contract term determining if it is owed or not: A) Owed price tag equals cost paper work; B) Owed before setting and attempting to sell; C) Owed before changing a price tag, up or down; D) If not done and shown, the price term is presumed illegal, not owed; and E) Any contract obligation entered to not employ cost pricing is illegal: Interference...is unlawful per se. It is also called equal “consideration” in contracts, respect for others hard labor: If...reasonableness...would ...become an issue ... its philosophy—supplanted by one alien to a system of free competition; ...not... the charter of freedom ...intended (and promised). Instead of putting pen to paper and compliantly employing itemizing overhead costs, I was trained by James Garrett Kendrick and Dan Mogin to simply call other friends in the field, get their price list and match up with their listed prices ($150-200 intern/first year lawyer). Matching a rivals prices is illegal absent showing the papers: “Knowledge of a competitor’s prices seemed to have the affect of keeping prices within a narrow ambit.” Key “Price” Fee Award Material Term in Faith In Contracts’ Covenant Maxims of Macho Man Firms’ retainer contracts subject to law include: A) Things invalid from the beginning [like retainer contract price terms] cannot be made valid by subsequent act. B) A thing void in the beginning does not become valid by lapse of time. C) Time cannot render valid an act void in its origin. D) Once a fraud retainer or mortgage contract, always a fraud retainer or mortgage contract. Posner, Antitrust Law, An Economic Perspective, Ch 7, at 133, 136 (University off Chicago Press, 1976).
