My buddies son is a SEAL. He's been deployed to SE Asia the past 6 months and still is.
He's been all over the Middle East on deployments. He's 6 years in.
I've met most of his SEAL team mates. All very strong in body, character and mind.
Every one of those young men that I have met are solid humans and committed to their cause and objective.
You have to have the stead fast want and desire to do the job. That is why so few make it the distance in the training.
I can't think of a finer bunch of Patriots and I fear for their safety daily.
It's a lot different when you know a boy that you were uncle to that is now out there doing this work for the greater good.
I'm actually mystified at some of the comments towards the SEAL team members and their chosen military duty as the best of the best.
I don't give a husky fook what they use to make it through what they go through.
All I can do at this point is hope and pray that he can come home safe.
If you think these guys are bad or bullies I think you need to actually talk to one before you make a decision of what they are really like.
Every single one I have spoken to were straight up committed to the job and all were gentlemen... until it gets real and then they are straight up savages.
