1. Barry Seal was a Green Beret?
Seal served in a combat engineer unit attached to the 20th Special Forces group but whilst he was a qualified paratrooper and communications specialist he was never a Green Beret himself.
2. Barry Seal worked for the CIA in Vietnam and flew for their Air America operation? Seal never worked for the CIA in Vietnam although he did fly to the country as a civilian pilot, ferrying troops to and from the combat zone.
3. Seal's smuggling of drugs, weapons and people was on behalf of the CIA? Seal certainly flew drugs on behalf of elements of the Contras and their supporters who were backed by the CIA in their war against the Sandinistas. However there is no definitive evidence that Seal worked directly for the CIA. His only confirmed contact with them was they debriefed him after his arrest and fitted the hidden cameras to his plane to use in the drugs sting operation.
4. Seal was part of a government plot to fund the war against communism by dealing drugs in African-American ghettos? The Kerry commission initiated by the US senate to investigate such allegations found no evidence to support them, many US allies involved in the drug trade but without any active involvement from any US government agency.
