Joseph Teti is a veteran of both US military and US government special operations units. He is a former Force Recon Marine, Army Special Forces “Green Beret”, and a former operator in a highly classified government counter-terrorist unit. Joe is a combat veteran of both OIF (Operation Iraqi Freedom) in Iraq, and OEF (Operation Enduring Freedom) in Afghanistan. He planned and conducted a broad range of special operations missions covering the entire operational continuum. These missions gave the President of the United States an option when overt military and/or diplomatic actions were not viable or politically feasible. Operations of this nature required rapid response with surgical application of a wide variety of unique skills, while maintaining the lowest possible profile of U.S. involvement. He participated in numerous classified direct action missions with several Tier 1 SMU’s (Special Mission Units). Joseph has performed high-risk PSD (Personal Security Detail) operations in Afghanistan and Iraq for U.S. government and civilian clients. He was also a member of a U.S. State Department close protection team assigned to several high profile government officials and visiting diplomats in Israel. Working out of the U.S. Embassy in Tel Aviv, and the U.S. Consulate in Jerusalem, he operated in high risk areas throughout the country to include Ramallah, Abu Dis, Jericho, The Gaza Strip and the West Bank. He has extensive experience and training in fully armored vehicle operations, advance team operations, motorcade operations, CAT (Counter Assault Team) operations and surveillance/counter surveillance operations. A graduate of over 30 formal schools in regards to special operations, his skill sets and experiences are highly diverse. He has attended several survival schools over his career and is one of a few individuals in the world that hold an instructor certification in tactical tracking operations from legendary tracker and former Rhodesian SAS (Special Air Service) and Selous Scout,
David Scott-Donelan. He has held a TOP SECRET-SCI with polygraph security clearance, the highest security clearance awarded by the U.S. government. Connect with Joe: www.loneoperatorinc.com www.josephteti.com Facebook

Today I am going to share with you the story of Army Ranger 1st Lt. Michael Behenna, Michael was sentenced to 25 years in prison for killing Ali Monsour, a known Al Qaeda operative while serving in Iraq. Despite the forensic evidence and the expert witness that support Michael's case, Michael sits behind bars in Leavenworth making the best of a bad situation. This story also brings forth the question… does a soldier have a right to defend himself in a war zone? And while the answer may seem obvious, there are people out there that disagree. I ask that everyone hearing this story step up and take action. We can't leave a brother behind and Michael deserves his freedom. One team one fight. Michael can also receive money into his prison account for personal items and telephone calls. the prison charges 40 cents per minute for telephone calls, which makes keeping in touch difficult. Only Money Orders can be sent to the prison and they must have “Michael Behenna  87503″ on the payee line. Send books, money orders and your letters of support to: Michael Behenna #87503 1300 N. Warehouse Road Fort Leavenworth, KS 66027-2304 To make a donation to the legal defense fund visit: ChairborneCommandos.com/Michael Hit up the website: http://www.defendmichael.com
