My late uncle Frank (dad's baby brother) was airborne who went LRRP. Most exciting time he had in the Army. He even volunteered for another Nam tour to do LRRP duty.

Being airborne he was already "elite" but what impressed him most was the wide latitude that the command structure had with which to plan missions, etc. Missions were thoughtfully planned on how to get-in/get-out with minimal footprint.

You know PO3 Donald Murphy I know a lot of soldiers don't believe Ghost Soldiers exist but we do on numerous scales. My grandfather was born on the Choctaw Territory in Oklahoma. And my grandmothers uncle was a Gen in the ARMY. I found out that some tribes would teach some soldiers how to become ghosts. It was these soldiers who were leaders that would teach other small platoons the same trainings.
But there's always serious consequences to being a ghost. Eventually even the Govt begins to fear what they made. It's best to retire shortly after your purpose. That's why there's not a lot of soldiers who stay in the military after being a part of some of these elite platoons.
