Having seen firsthand what SEALs can do, and having a SEAL team save my (and a few other's) butt in a place I can't name, I know who the F I would call if the fit hit the shan. And I worked with a number of different SpecOps units.

My first Co was SF and a marathon runner. On his first assignment after getting his SF tab, there were Seals doing PT. Being a cocky young man, he inviated himself to PT thinking that the Seals were all hype. He said it was the hardest workout that he never finished an he never made it to the run.

I have zero experience in the military (my mistake), but from what I know about Spec Ops units, the SEALs are among the best, if not THE best; anybody who can fight on the Sea, Air and Land has GOTTA be good (of course, it doesn't hurt that I just finished reading Lone Survivor: The Eyewitness Account of Operation Redwing and the Lost Heroes of SEAL Team 10).

I respect the heck out of the SEALs, but no'more than I respect the SAS, Danish Jägerkorps & KSK-9.
