I always enjoyed this quote.
"Only 500 SEALs served in Vietnam. And we've met all 20,000 of them." --Steve Robinson, a former SEAL in Forsyth, Mo. |

For a SEAL though it would be impossible to have zero foreign service and claim to have in several foreign actions and also for SEAL to have literally 0 sea years not even a few months at sea that is impossible.Somehow he missed every single bit of routine training that involved any form of infiltration by sea in which at some point said SEAL would have to be on a boat. It is the context of what someone claims that is important an AO1 could work with the P-3 Orion and it would make perfect sense for that person have 0 sea miles.I have a friend that was supply in the Navy and he has no sea time either but for a SEAL to have no miles after 35 years that dog just dont hunt. |

Maybe he got his two CMOHs for swimming to his deployments in Vietnam and Afghanistan/Pakistan.

No. Remember? He flew there in the SR-71 and HALO jumped into combat....but it was Top-Secret so he couldn't tell us.

![]() Just like the Iranian Embassy siege in 1980 - around 30 SAS guys there and I must've met about or heard from 100 of them, some must have been barely in their teens at the time. I reckon about a quarter of the British Army over the last 30 years were there. ![]() Unfortunately, 30 is now about a quarter of the army strength. ![]()

Yeah never thought of that he has no sea years because of course he swam everywhere himself he never had to ride on a USN vessel.His foreign service years are 0 because he is so awesome he is a citizen of every nation even ones that do not yet exist. The reason he left the Navy? He is such a powerhouse and is so deadly they had to write new articles in both the Geneva and Hague Conventions that expressly banned him. Most SEALs are members of a SEAL Team he was of course a one man unit so they just called him SEAL Number 1. |

Also he quit the SEALs because the CIA told him that Team America need him, as only he could make the US safe from the world, FOREVER! |
