Tonto21 Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 (edited) As a midshipman in 1977, I went to the BUD/S Indoc Course, but I went Marines upon graduation, not Navy. Does that count? Marine Corps Force Recon are right up there with the Seals. I would guess that they take the same course. I was Battalion Recon, not Force. (We had no Force in the 3DMARDIV when I was assigned there, only a Deep Reconnaissance Platoon.) But I did wear the "Dual Cool" (or "Dual Fool" as some others referred to it. ) And I will be honest--I am glad I never had to go the BUD/S route. Even for my indoc course, it sucked! And my hat is off to those who survived it, all 28 weeks of it (I think it was 28 weeks.) Cold, tired, beat up, it sucked. I got my jump wings at Benning and my dive qual at Pearl Harbor, a much easier route. I never made it to Army Ranger School. In Recon, we generally have a day or two of initial eval where you are run pretty ragged, but you can put up with anything for two days. Our training once in a unit is tough, but not brutal. I have "fought" SEALs in many operations, and quite frankly, my Marines pretty much always came out on top. But that was because of superior unit cohesion and tactics. As individual warriors, well, SEALs, in my humble opinion, are about at the top of the toughness pyramid. When I see someone wearing the Trident, well, my hat's off to him. And that is one reason I love to debunk the fakers even if I was never a SEAL. Oddly enough, I enlisted in the Navy after seeing an old film, "Men With Green Faces," a Navy film on the SEALs, but was convinced by my recruiter to go Nuc Power. (I never made it to boot camp and my appointment to the Academy came through before my reporting date.) Then I eschewed the Nuc Navy to go Marines upon graduation. good god, could you have fit more jargon into this post? Oh… nocturne………..REMF,back in your safe hole! Civic Muppet!

They did not crash there trasport out, equipment malfunction, all antisipated hence two (slow movers) helicopters to you. and they had back up.

What do they say besides all that hoo ha hahaha....go hard or go home !! 20 years............shoulda gone home. Go Walrus's . With hindsight we are all experts Nawtier, analyzing the details of what happened........and taking the piss! After the event it is so easy, and leaves every single armchair armature, an expert in military maters………. Walk a day in these guys shoes, I think you'd change your tune! Easy to mock, hard to emulate! Just think about it. Fact is you should be ashamed of yourself andanyone else who thing like you do, I’m not talking about ripping in-to the self-servingpoliticians, who order these raids, but the men who carry them out. You’re not toofar removed from the people who abused troops returning from Vietnam……They weresent to do a job that most people could not do or turned away from. I mean no disrespect……..Just think about it,these guys on the front line are just like you and me believe it or not.......And I'm a yank!

bonobo Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 Wonder what the bin Laden clan are feeling today, not entirely disowning Osama - but distant. Not much is spoken of regarding this extremely powerful and influential extended family. I went to school with one of his half-brothers and through him, was on friendly terms with two others. One evening, at one brother's home in LA, we were discussing Osama. This was when he was our tool in Afghanistan against the Soviets. They sort of admired him but also thought he was crazy. My friend went on from our school to Harvard to further his education, and when Osama became Public Enemy Number 1, the media essentially hounded him out of school and the country. He publicly disowned Osama, spouting the family line, and I think he was serious, not just saying that due to his family's close ties to the Saudi royal family. He was pretty upset with the whole situation. I haven't spoken with any of the three brothers since then, so I don't know the current situation with them. But I can't imagine that they have changed their views much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NanLaew Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 Geewizz.... the 'I went to school with a bin Laden relative' bomb has been dropped in the 'Navy Seals piss it up for free on Soi Cowboy' thread. Collateral damage appears to have also shut up the guys that drove a truck with some pilots in the back that used to hang out with the mech trainees that wiped the dead bugs off the windshields of the choppers that are the same type as the ones that SEAL Team 6 trained on... before they graduated, that is. How many showed up then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NALAK Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 (edited) place is full of special forces one heck of a bill coming, think they are all hitting obama up for few beers at the moment, do sea Lions count. Ronald Reagan Carrier in Phuket now, still i think maybe a few there. quite easy to sus out UK special forces, the fact they said they were, means their fibbing straight away. had it been UK special forces no details would have been released, or pictures. turning bad, job well done but starting to back fire a bit. world is a better place with out him. suprised it being classed as on of USA greatest raids, totally unchallenged, but great tracking work by intel guys. still bin laden had similar experience to kate middleton last weekend, had a navy guy kick the door.

Bin ladens death has achieved nothing. congratulations. If anything, it stirred up an even more determined hornet's nest. Hypothetically, if such evil were to be missing from the American's diet, I guarantee they would find a boogieman to invent for the mindless masses. It's the U.S. life's blood.....having to have an enemy. Edited May 7, 2011 by zzaa09 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
