Remember:
"We sleep safe in our beds because rough men stand ready
in the night to visit violence on those who would do us harm"
~George Orwell~
Three members of the elite Navy SEAL Comando were initially hailed as heroes for capturing one
of Iraq's most wanted alleged terrorists. These heroes are now being court martialed for
allegedly giving a swollen lip to this terrorist who is believed to have masterminded the
dismembering, burning, and hanging of four Americans in Falluja in 2004.
These SEALs are defending their honor while standing up against the same political
correctness that is tearing apart our country. These heroes deserve our support. We want to minimize
the financial burden this case is creating for them and their families.
Please help us in showing your support with a donation.
If you would like to help Navy Seals who put their lives on the line for our Country, please send

2nd LT Phil Spence is under investigation for impersonating a recipient of BRONZE STAR for VALOR
After extensive consultations within the Navy SEAL community Navy SEALs Fund has decided to return donation made to Navy SEALs Fund by 2nd LT Phil Spence of Loveland OH. 2nd LT Phil Spence is a member of Ohio National Guard
and he is currently under investigation for impersonating a recipient of Bronze Star for Valor.
2nd LT Phil Spence of Loveland, OH was NEVER awarded Bronze Star for Valor.
Thank you for all of the support of these 3 US Navy SEALs:
SO1 Huertas, SO2 McCabe, SO2 Keefe.
03 June 2010
SO2 Matthew McCabe, SO2 Jonathan Keefe and SO1 Julio Huertas
have been found NOT GUILTY, fully exonerated!
Their word and honor held true and the dedication of their attorneys
ensured they were fully acquitted of all charges! Each attorney has been generous
with reduced fees/donation of expertise for portions of these trials. However, there
are still bills from essentials that need to be paid.
Specifically: McCabe's bill has
been fully taken care of. Thank you!
The remaining bills are for Huertas and Keefe's
as a result of their trials being held in Iraq and the government's refusal to assist
in the travel needs for the attorneys.
The goal is to provide full financial relief
for all 3 of these Heroes; approximately $55,000 is still needed to reach this goal.
If everyone reading this would simply donate $5, we will easily surpass this goal.
All funds remaining will go to help other military members in need.

SO2 Jonathan Keefe and SO1 Julio Huertas found NOT GUILTY, fully exonerated!
24 April 2010
Navy SEALs, SO2 Johathan Keefe and SO1 Julio Huertas have been found NOT GUILTY, fully exonerated,
by a military jury for the alleged role in the detainee abuse of Ahmed Hashim Abed.
One SEAL is still facing court-martial, SO2 Matthew McCabe. McCabe’s trial is scheduled for 3 May in Norfolk VA.
The Law Firm of Puckett & Faraj, PC is now calling upon Major General Cleveland
to dismiss the charges against the remaining Navy SEAL, SO2 Matthew McCabe. To proceed with the trial against SO2 McCabe would be a tremendous
waste of tax payer money.
4/24/10 - From Monica Lombardi: “SO1 Huertas has left Iraq to go back home. I will leave Iraq tomorrow.
I want all of you to know how grateful we are for your support. The trial was a long time coming, and we pressed
on through very long days to get the justice Huertas deserved. This has been a costly trial, but worth every
penny when I can defend those who defend all of us. Thanks you. Two down, one more to go - pray for a clean sweep!”

12 April 2010
This Navy SEALs Support lapel pin was inspired by the spirit and steadfastness demonstrated
by the many thousands of men and women determined to stand united in support of our elite warriors,
the US Navy SEALs.
Thank you to Susan Dunivant, the artist behind The Navy SEALs pins project.
This pin offers yet one more way you can show your support for the three elite warriors...SO2 Matthew McCabe, SO2 Jonathan Keefe and SO1 Julio Huertas.
These are the 3 Navy SEALs who captured and delivered into custody the suspected mastermind of the
murder and desecration of 4 Americans in Falluja, Iraq, 2004.
Instead of being properly hailed as heroes, they are instead defending themselves against charges
leveled after completion of their mission.
The profits are being donated to the Navy SEALs fund and creates a great conversation starter to get the
word out on the atrocity of the situation.

Cracks are beginning to appear in the military's prosecution of three Navy SEALs
28 March 2010
Cracks are beginning to appear in the military's prosecution of three Navy SEALs accused of being mean to
the most-wanted, savage terrorist they had captured in Iraq.
US Navy SEAL, SO2 Matthew McCabe passed a professional polygraph test.
With today's technology it is impossible to beat such polygraph.
Some of the charges against US Navy SEAL, SO2 Keefe were recently dropped
because he was not read his Miranda Rights.
Yet, it seems to be a priority to read the Miranda Rights to a terrorist so he doesn't confess too much (ie. Underwear Bomber).
Three enlisted men and two officers, are expected to flatly contradict the prosecution's key witness, who changed his story multiple times.
27 March 2010, A National Fund Raiser in Scottsdale, AZ for defense of US. Navy SEALs accused by a terrorist.

Maritime Tactical Security, INC, is working with the Facebook Group

27 March 2010 a National Fundraiser event has been organized in honor of these 3 SEALs for risking their lives to capture
the mastermind behind Fallujah, where 4 Americans were dismembered, burned, and hung from a bridge.
SO2 Matthew McCabe, one the SEALs that captured this SAVAGE TERRORIST will appear at the rally. He will reveal something he has known since 1st September of last year. This will crack the SEAL cases wide open.
Various honored guests have been invited as well as , politicians and others, who will be speaking in regards to the need for Congress, the President, and the military Generals, to intervene and put a stop to this madness.
Thank you and God bless!

Author & Publisher Rally Support Behind Three Navy SEALs
10 February 2010
Elizabeth Kilbride and www.fatherspress.com announced they would donate $4 from
the sale of Kilbride’s book “Soul of American Warrior” to the Navy SEAL’s
Defense Fund.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
LEE SUMMIT, MO – Kilbride’s donation is aimed at helping to offset the overwhelming
legal fees associated with defending three U.S. Navy SEALs - SO2 Matthew McCabe,
SO2 Jonathan Keefe and SO1 Julio Huertas - who have been charged with abuse
of a terrorist insurgent.
“Matt McCabe and his fellow SEALs have the best possible legal representation.
The best comes with a price tag,” Kilbride said firmly. Mike Smitley, owner of
Father’s Press Publishing, said, “Having been to Iraq with our warriors, then writing
about them, Kilbride knows their sacrifices first-hand, which is why she wanted
to do more than just verbally give her support. We intend to help these SEALs
by providing them with two strategic weapons to help them fight their
battle -- a book to help educate their fellow Americans and some funds to help
in their defense.”

Another American Hero of War in Iraq in the Cross Hairs of Political Correctness.
29 January 2010
Maritime Tactical Security has decided to engage in support of
Army Ranger,
1st LT. Michael Behenna,
who has suffered at the hands of political correctness.

First Lieutenant Michael C. Behenna is a 25 year old
Army Airborne Ranger who was stationed near Baiji Iraq, north of Baghdad. Michael grew up in
Edmond, Oklahoma and graduated from Edmond Memorial High School in 2002. Michael graduated
from the University of Central Oklahoma and was commissioned through Army ROTC in 2006.
1st LT Behenna served in Iraq as an infantry platoon leader with the 101st Airborne
Division in northern Iraq starting in September 2007. On July 31, 2008, he was charged with the
premeditated murder of an Iraqi terrorist.
Maritime Tactical Security believes that
Army Ranger, 1st Lieutenant Michael Behenna
was wrongfully prosecuted and subsequently imprisoned for shooting and killing
a terrorist who attacked Michael during an interrogation.
The following link has more information on how you can show your support www.michaelbehenna.com,
or through the Great American Patrior, Dr. Savage's website www.michaelsavage.wnd.com
You can make donations to "Michael Behenna Defense Fund" to help minimize the financial burden this case is creating on this young American Hero and his family at www.defendmichael.com

CAN WE TRUST CONFUSED GENERAL TO LEAD OUR TROOPS IN LIFE AND DEATH SITUATIONS?
Is Maj. General Cleveland confused as to whom the war is with?
12 January 2010
The Army general who leveled charges at three Navy SEALs related to an alleged
assault on a suspected al-Qaida terrorist in their custody defended his actions
in a letter to lawmakers who questioned the need for prosecution.
Maj. Gen. Charles Cleveland, commander of Special Operations Command, Central Command,
wrote the justification in a Dec. 15 response to Indiana Republican Rep. Dan Burton’s
call on behalf of a group of 40 lawmakers who want all charges against the SEALs dropped.
But the explanation Cleveland provided doesn’t wash with the 40 members of Congress
who signed a petition last month to have the charges dropped. They continue to call
for the charges to be dropped.
In the Jan. 4 response,
Congressman Burton (R-Indian) said he appreciated the general’s attempt
to “set the record straight,” but said the additional information Cleveland
provided “only reinforced” his concerns that the allegations and subsequent
prosecution are sending a bad message to all U.S. troops engaged in combat.
It appears that POLITICAL CORRECTNESS got the better of our General, and has confused him thoroughly
as to with whom the war is with. Maj. Gen. Charles Cleveland needs to be reminded that the war is not
with the defenders of our country!
We only hope that our Veterans organizations, and private sector will take notice of this
General and his actions.
Three US NAVY SEALs are being Court Martialed after a terrorist blames them for his swollen lip!!!
Did some forget?
02 December 2009
Three members of the elite Navy SEALs, who were hailed as heroes for capturing one of Iraq's most wanted
alleged terrorists, are now being court martialed for allegedly roughing him up.
The "victim",the terrorist, is believed to have masterminded the dismembering, burning and
hanging of four Americans in Falluja, 2004.
(see pictures below!)
The three SEALs will be arraigned Dec. 7 (Pearl Harbor Day) in a military court in Norfolk, Va.,
said Army Lt. Col. Holly Silkman, a spokeswoman with U.S. Special Operations Command Central.
We believe that it is preposterous to prosecute these Navy SEALs.

As witnessed almost daily, commercial shipping vessels and cruise ships alike are
at risk. MTS provides cost effective consultations, logistics, and "ride-along"

states Jay Crosby, Executive Producer of Special Edition TV.
He added; "We hear almost daily the Somali pirates seizing ships , extorting ransom dollars
and placing people’s live in peril. Interviewing the leadership at MTS about the proactive
secure measures they have to meet this growing threat confirmed the selection of their story
for our program".
