Handcuffed and with a hood over his head, Adam Gamal (pictured) could hear the sound of expIosions around him. At just 5ft tall, he was at the mercy of a bearded interrogator almost twice his size. The giant hit him so many times he thought he was going to d*e. He was b01mbarded with questions and other Americans around him were begging for the torment to stop. But he wasn’t in a w ar zone and the blast sounds were only simulations.
Gamal was at the beginning of the brutaI process of being selected for the most secretive fi ght1ng force in the U.S. miIitary. It’s so classified, it doesn’t even have an official name. He spent three weeks getting constantly smacked during interrogations, walking miles in deserts and training until he was so exhausted he couldn’t move. It was all part of the hellish program to qualify for a unit of intelligence operatives who track down the biggest threats to the United States – while operating almost completely in the shadows. The Navy SEALs and Green Berets are well known for some of the most historic and dangerous missions in history.
When deployed he would be constantly under surveillance, and would come back to his hotel room to find the contents of his suitcase dumped on the floor. When he asked staff if anyone had been in his room, they simply shrugged their shoulders and looked at him with the same suspicion of those following him. He has been to the most voIatile parts of the Horn of Africa. Adam Gamal is a pseudonym because he can’t reveal his real name. He even uses a voice changer to speak to DailyMail.com from where he lives, which he also cannot tell us. And despite the fact that his career finished years ago, he is sworn to silence about the full extent of his work.
Those who weren’t interested in the covert position were told to leave. He was still struggling with his English, and learned with the help of a book he was given by an Irish-American comrade. None of his deployments were the same. But in the middle of a May night in 2008, Gamal had eyes on Ayro and coordinated an a1rstri ke with $5million worth of mis siIes from a US Navy ship off the coast of Africa. On another assignment, while working in an embassy in an undisclosed location in East Africa, he walked into his office and suddenly heard an ex pIosion.
