For anyone confused as to who these are, the one on the left is Richard Stallman and the one on the right is Linus Torvalds.
I’ve heard of the guy on the right, of course, but who is Linus Torvalds? Does he deserve to be placed in a meme next to one of the old gods? His sunglasses make me think no.
Yes. Yes he does. He’s the inventor of Linux
Inventor of Linux? No, you’re thinking of Linus Tech Tips
Motherfucking
Mike ViningBill Cronin. What people think a tough guy looks like vs an actual badass. Give me that Rick Moranis dripthis aint Mike Vining;
The photos on the internet that identify me as being on General H. Norman Schwarzhopf, Jr., security detail during Operation DESERT STORM is not me. It is William F. “Bill” Cronin III, a friend and co-worker in Delta. I did not do any personal security during my time in Delta. I did conduct security/survivability assessments within the United States and world-wide during my time in Delta.

When the guy holding the rifle looks like he could be doing your taxes at HR Block, run.
Dude looks like he could double tap your nuts clean off before he’s even had his morning coffee
After wikipedia-holing on the topic, apparently that’s not actually Mike Vining
Yeah my bad, nowayhosay posted the deets in the other comment
all good fella, appreciate your posts none the less
That guy looks like he’s Falling Down
I want to know what a Sgt.-Osiris-Lincoln-stone-cold-BAMF carried in the pockets of his sensible Dockers.
This man was the first bomb technician for Delta Force.
His hobbies include stamp collecting.
He collects stamps, baseball cards, and the heads of his enemies
Reminds me of that armored truck driver guy in Africa who laid down the law after a crazy car chase
That Rick Moranis looking motherfucker is Mike Vining, and he’s more of a badass than all of us put together. He’s a former member of Delta Force, which is the absolute best members of each of the special forces from all of the military branches. You do not become a member of Delta Force without being one of the toughest, most determined, most suffering tolerant people on the planet.
Here he is in Vietnam in 1970
And here he is (front row, at right) as a member of Delta Force’s C Team, B Squadron.
