Benjamin received a few medals\/ribbons and was stationed at Helicopter Sea Combat Squadron Seven in Norfolk, VA.  After 2006 the SEAL Teams obtained their own rate Special Warfare Operator (SO).  Benjamin did NOT attend BUD\/S, did NOT receive the SO rate, was NOT stationed at a SEAL Team and was NOT a SEAL.
