Unfortunately for the Kos, they are waaaay behind the curve on this story. Over a month ago a blog run by a US navy SEAL proved Tony is full of crap, and then engaged Tony directly in a debate (in his comments section). You can read it here:

You ask a great question - and Dan S. above (and the supposed SEAL “Froggy”) unintentionally provides the answer, although not what they attended.
Dan S. (and “Froggy”) are struggle to discredit and smear Tony Lagouranis, but their link shows Lagouranis engaged those comments with many credible answers, never hiding or misrepresenting how he got his information. (I wish more of our journalists operated that way.) The idea that a SEAL who has never met him wants to discredit him does not “prove” what Dan S. claims.
In fact, the comments there also include someone in the military who does know Lagouranis - and who disagrees with him on politics - but is certain that Lagouranis must be telling the truth. So Dan S. and that blog are actually terrific evidence of the social and cultural pressure military people use to attack and silence whistleblowers - demonstrating why there aren’t more of them.
Thanks for the service, Dan.
