The Military (US) SEAL Team Six
SEAL team six also known as the Naval Special Warfare Development Group or DEVGRU. It is the US military’s main counter terrorist unit and also a test bed for development of equipment and techniques for the utilization of SEAL teams and other Special Forces units. In the Executive Order 12171 of 19 November 1979, the credibility of the creation of the special group was justified: By the authority vested in me as President of the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, including section 7103(b)(1) of title five of the United States Code, and having determined that the Naval Special Warfare Development Group has a primary function intelligence, counter-intelligence, investigative, or national security work and that the provisions of Chapter 71 of title five of the United States Code cannot be applied to this organization in a manner consistent with national security requirements and considerations. In 1980 it was commissioned and started its operation led by Richard Marcinko.
The military’s (US) SEAL Team six since then operated behind enemy lines. They gathered numbers of vital intelligence on terrorists and dangerous dictators. Through this, they had suffered many fatalities. But their efforts had gained the US and the rest of the world stunning victories against terrorism particularly in Afghanistan. Another recorded operation of the SEAL team six is the preinvasion recom of sites for amphibious and airborne landings at Point Salines. The mission involved an insertion thru a parachute of a sixteen-mean team. The operation went wrong as the team was late by six hours and the SEAL’s jumped into pitch black night, making link-up with the boats difficult. The SEALs were driven deep below the surface of the water on landing. Three SEALs drowned at the very onset of the insertion phase of the operation.
Seeing from all these messes and successes of the military, as a United States citizen and Naval Academy graduate, why would you want to be a SEAL? A current SEAL platoon commander was asked same question and said: “When I got there I wasn’t quite sure what I wanted to do. I think I wanted to be a pilot. But I started rowing crew rowing crew when I was freshman. There’s a lot of guys that rowed crew that ended up going special warfare. A lot of the upper class that I saw got into the mindset of working out hard, taking care of yourself, that kind of camaraderie. In crew it was an eight-men team in the boat, totally relying on each other. That kind of thing real well for special warfare.” (Unconventional Warfare by Susan Lynn Marquis, 48). Obviously, the people that decides to join in SEALs admires the kind of camaraderie in the team. Aside from that they are seeing themselves saving US citizen and people of the world with dignity because people that makes up of SEALs are passionate of serving the country for greater good. And that is the most important thing – love of work and the country.
For the military (US) Special Forces like SEAL team six there are many tricky and uncertain aspects of training. If you want to belong to special forces you must ready yourself to great amount of pressure, less sleep, and a lot of physical activity. For the record only about 45 percent of the students who begin army Specail Forces selection and assessment successfully complete it. But once you’ve become part of the military (US) SEAL particularly team six – you will be forever congratulating yourself for your success and perseverance as your role for the country’s security worth every sacrifice and hard work.
