I was just wondering if there are any Navy Seals in our club. I am watching a biography on Navy Seal training. The stuff they have to go through and the drop rate. Are any of you Navy Seals???

I just want to offer my respect.

A number of years ago, I did a little sky diving. I had the honor of jumping with two of the Navy Leapfrogs Team. Both of them Seals. What struck me was their appearance and attitude. They both were down to earth types. Very quiet in their speech and body language.. They also were very slight of build and one was an Icabod Crane looking dude. When I told them I was sorry they just didn't fit my picture of what a Seal was like, one of them said that the Rambo type looking guys were the first ones to drop out of training. I also met one at Kadena Air Base in 1969. Same type of guy, he was rotating home after a year in country and had a really wierd look in his eye and talked really slow. You know. The type of guy you would want by your side when the s**t hits the fan. I'm glad they're on our side.
Cheers, Elliot
