Iranian hostage rescue attempt survivor dies at 72. Does this need to be a question?

I get a little tired of the Admins rewriting my posts to make things a "question".
Some discussions do not need to be a question, but a statement.
This is one of those.

Beyers was part of an elite group of commandos who took part in the effort to free the Americans who had been taken hostage during the Iranian Revolution. The ill-fated mission led to the creation of today’s U.S. Special Operations Command.

It doesn't have to be a question, so long as you read it in your mind as if you were a "valley girl" :P

On another note, it is good you remind us young 'uns of guys like this. Too often are they lost in the mists of obscurity of modern media reporting. Thank you, SPC Jan Allbright, M.Sc., R.S. for bringing this to our attention.

Now, to change your question back to a statement...and then back to a question...
