I have been in the us navy, been to many navy seal graduations (not my own, i played trombone) - but never heard about a single seal operation. Just knew they went through hell to become badasses. Now, for the second time in my life - i am hearing about seal operations on tv. The first was panetta and obama telling the world. An act that got the person who helped us id bin lad, Pakistani doctor Afridi, imprisoned and tortured (he is still in that condition) by the pakistani government. Now, again .. Under this president. . I am hearing about operational details of navy seal missions. IF that werent enough, this administration under this president is going forward tomorrow with a release of a report on g. Bush interrogation methods that requires thousands of marines to be forward-deployed and ready to go into harms way. policy makers who obviously dont give a damn who gets killed or put into harms way so they can score political points.
