Codenames
[edit]The last paragraph of the intro lists several different codenames for the group, all without citations. "Gray Fox" is mentioned further down the page, and it looks like "Centra Spike" may be too, but I'm particularly suspicious of "Cemetery Wind", which is mentioned in Transformers: Dark of the Moon and was added in this change. 188.39.104.90 (talk) 08:34, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
- Cemetery Wind is quoted in Killing Pablo by Mark Bowden. So it's somewhat serious, and I guess Transformers picked it up (Killing Pablo was first published in 2001). However, it says nothing more than it's a past codename of the unit : no duration/place/op when it was in use, so it's quite useless. Rob1bureau (talk) 14:09, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
- "Gray Fox" has been confirmed use in early Afghanistan like stated in the article. Read before you say. Centra Spike has been confirmed to be used around 1993 when it deployed in Latin America once more in assistance with finding Pablo Escobar. 24specialtacticslul (talk) 20:29, 2 December 2023 (UTC)
