thanks ya'll. navy SEALS thats impressive, hope he makes it through alright. personal satisfaction and a sense of duty are the reasons i enlisted in the first place. already have done 2 deployments, both in country i think its time to take the next step. plus i cant let my men go without me being there out front where i belong, NCO's set the example and lead the way
yea from what he says navy seals is one of the tuffest things to go into. hes very dedicated to it thats for sure. He quit his job that he was making $20/hour at doing nothing so he can spend more time at the gym and running/swimming. pretty crazy. what are you in again?
