I cannot imagine a bunch of SEAL's and SWCC's saying anything mean to him.
They probably won't say much of anything to him, mean or otherwise. They also probably wouldn't bring him inside of SEAL traditions or customs unless he was, you know, an actual SEAL or something.
You can't bring an outsider into your tight knit group, humiliate him, demean him, and be mean to him and then expect him not to retaliate in some way. I'm almost certain that this call sign night was not "all in good fun." If it was, then the target selection was unsat - they should have saved that for one of their own. I find it hard to be sympathetic here. I've participated in five or six call sign nights, and I know how they can get. But we never targeted a non-flyer for our biggest bombs, they were always aimed at friends and fellow flyers and we definitely never got too close to the truth. Because that would've just been being a ****.
