    Quite frankly, this is the best Navy SEAL documentary ever filmed. It was produced during a time when there was no social media and there were no books written about the SEALs and their exploits. The guys in those teams were not concerned with being famous, writing books, consulting for movies, or appearing in reality shows. These guys represented the quintessential "quiet professional" who was in it to fight at the highest level and nothing else.

      Same with all special forces now. Nobody even knew what the SAS was until a team assaulted the Iranian Embassy hostage seige in 1980. I'm not surprised though, since our governments don't pay them very much and once you leave the forces, you're completely cast aside and forgotten about. It's all very well and good people endlessly and habitually just saying "Thank you for your service." But thank yous don't take care of you in psychological trauma. Thank yous don't pay the rent and bills. We also would rather vote in loud, crass politicians who just blow hot air and talk about patriotism and everything while not actually doing anything real for all these people they claim to have such respect for. We're all so easily conned and cajoled with the politics and the political personalities, while in reality completely ignoring the practical realities of what they really do for society.
      In the UK, special forces soldiers have the highest suicide rates of all the forces. They're massively pushed and trained until they almost die to do what they're made to do for "the country" (usually these days you're doing things for multinational corporations interests), and they're drummed up into a psychological frenzy of achieving an elite military status, but once you've been used up, they don't give a toss and you're left to rejoin society with no useful qualifications beyond scrabbling for private security work. However, if you're f-ed up from all the trauma and can't go back into private security work, you have to train to be a postman or a cleaner or whatever else normal people with no qualifications have to do to survive. After all they've been through and done and felt part of, they'd rather just kill themselves.

    As a boy growing up in the Texas Hill Country I was fortunate enough to become friends with a Vietnam Veteran SEAL who lost the use of his legs due to an underwater explosion. I also became friends with a Green Beret who worked in both the Phoenix Program & SOG. Along with my Father who is also a Special Operations Veteran and a 1st Cousin who was a 1st Cav Trooper in Vietnam, I absolutely knew I would enter the Military and learn every skill I could. There Men shaped my world view and helped me learn to think critically and I’m forever grateful.

      “Special Forces” is often wrongly used as a broad term, but that’s what SOF (special operations forces) is for. Green Berets ARE Special Forces. No other unit in the American Military is referred to as “special forces” except Green Berets. Not putting you on blast or anything, just saw it as a learning moment. Lots of people do it, so it’s a pretty common mistake. I didn’t even get it until AFTER I did 5 years in the Marine Corps.

    Read a book about the Frogmen of Vietnam. It said during B/U/D's the chief would say "go get sandy", which meant jumping in the ocean then waller around in the sand till no skin showed. The "Sugar Cookie" I believe it was called. I think my favorite thing about the teams wasnt just the action but that they were such good problem solvers. Tough is tough, but clever is better. I tip my hat to you all. Good day.

Years after, fisherman from off the coast of Cuba, Puerto Rico, and Dominican Republic, would get sharks caught in their nets and would die. When the sharks were cut open, there was still the Navy SEALS equipment inside; goggles, flippers, even a still fully loaded MP-5 sub machine gun. They showed news reel footage from those Islands when it was discovered what the sharks had in them.
      So, no. Those men were eaten.😉
