I don't think that DEVGRU guys are any more entitled than another military member. They are paid in accordance with the Navy rank structure, their deployments, combat pays, etc. There isn't "Badass Pay" or anything like that and they know it. Those guys also know their skills are basically useless in the civilian world. I'm not sure what the stink is about, this guy is choosing to leave after 16 years when he could likely find a desk job or go active reserve/guard or something to get to 20 years and retire on half of his pay until the day he dies.
