Brandon Webb and Jack Murphy say they are uniquely placed to tell the story of the Benghazi consulate attack and the political fall-out.
Webb, 37, spent ten years in the Navy SEALs and was deployed overseas five times - including a tour in Afghanistan shortly after 9/11. He left the Navy in 2006 as a Chief Petty Officer after serving as a SEAL sniper instructor.
Murphy, 28, served eight years in the U.S. Army as an Army Ranger and later as a Special Forces Green Beret. He deployed three times. He retired in 2010 at the rank of Staff Sergeant and is now studying political science at Columbia University.
Both men run SOFREP.com, a site dedicated to telling the stories of current and former special operations commandos.
They said they tapped into their vast network of military insiders and intelligence officers to uncover the ‘untold’ story behind the attacks.
Their reporting on the scandal surrounding for CIA Director David Petraeus was based on interviews with people both inside and outside the CIA, as well as FBI agents, they said.

I have read Brandon Webb’s book “Inside The Red Circle”. Really good book. I also think you would enjoy their site SOFREP.
