To be a seal you have to learn how to swim in very cold water in the Bay area and eat raw fish and sleep in the wharf. Need something for the bad breadth too!To be a Navy SEAL ,if you ask and spell it correctly ,maybe a real SEAL will answer you.

It would be awful nice of you to use proper grammar and spelling. It does not appear that you have the discipline to be a Cub Scout much less a candidate for the Military. What do they teach in school these days? I was not in the SEALS ,but I am pretty sure no one will respond until you get it right. It is very important that when addressing people you get it right. That is called protocol and these men deserve that. So get with the program if you want their help.If you think I am being to picky then I suggest you do something else in your life.

Krayton,
Don't feel too bad, this happened with someone else on the old website. What Stoner is pointing out is that a "seal" is a furry aquatic animal with flippers. A "SEAL" is a highly trained sailor who likes to kill things and blow them up (or kill things by blowing them up). Note the difference between the two words. SEAL stands for SEa, Land, Air, the methods by which a SEAL will sneak up and visit death upon his unwary foe. It is an acronym and therefore an insult if not written in all caps.
You may think this is being anal but it's kinda like calling a Marine a soldier. No offense to any Army guys but regular Marine grunts go through much tougher training than a regular Army grunts and therefore earn the title "Marine". Likewise a SEAL has gone through BUD/S (and Hell Week) and has earned the right to be called a SEAL (in all caps). Hope this helps.
