The vast majority of the Pentagon’s Special Forces units, like the Navy SEALs, are commanded and manned by white officers and troops. Joining in the with the leftist cry for ‘diversity’, many military officials at the highest levels are stressing the need for change to match other branches of the armed forces.
For example, blacks comprised 17 percent of the Army in 2013 – a higher figure than their representation of the overall population.

Sadly, if there is true racism anymore, it will be like the little boy who cried wolf. No one will believe it since the race card is pulled for everything. I give it no credibility anymore. White, black or whatever, it’s been abused. By the way, Special Forces is just that, “SPECIAL”, not anybody that cries and whines! Good grief!
bull.
Really????
I suspect the discrepancy is due to who volunteers and those that are able to achieve the very difficult challenges this unique unit demands.
They meet the standards and do the job.
Leave the qualification as is if you can’t cut it you don’t make it regardless of your Color, nationality or what your name is, Male or Female has the right to request or be recommended like I was, so leave Special Forces alone and you can still have the best of the best.
You have to be able to do the JOB.
One must meet the standards ,many try many fail
There should be more patriots of color joining the military to protect our Nation.
Ever wonder why that is? It has nothing to do with color and everything to do with honor and sacrifice!
