RIP "Demo Dick"

Post by QuakeSteve »

Richard Marcinko, who founded the Navy’s SEAL Team 6 after earning accolades as a SEAL leader during two tours in Vietnam, died Christmas Day at age 81, the National Navy SEAL Museum has announced.

With the Navy needing an elite unit dedicated to counterterrorism after the Pentagon’s failure to rescue American hostages in Iran in 1980, Chief of Naval Operations Admiral Thomas B. Hayward hand-picked Marcinko to stand up the new SEAL team, according to the Fort Pierce, Fla., museum. Marcinko, known as “Demo Dick,” commanded SEAL Team 6 for about three years, retired from the Navy in 1989 as a commander and went on to write a series of nonfiction and fiction books based on the Navy SEALs.

“Dick Marcinko played a very unique part in SEAL history, leaving a legacy like no other,” the SEAL Museum wrote in a Facebook post Sunday announcing his death. “‘Demo Dick’ is considered the United States’ premier counterterrorism operator. We send our deepest sympathies to his family, teammates, and friends.”
Rest in Peace to a legendary Dick.
