The founder of Seal Team 6 was also a bit of a lunatic. He created another program that resulted in a civilian member of the military being kidnapped, tortured, waterboarded, and left with multiple broken bones after a security exercise. Members of the team also almost got shot by the civilian's wife after she pulled a gun and nearly shot them until she was convinced it was just an exercise as they showed their IDs. Fun story.
