It’s tragic but the training cannot change. There is a reason the navy seals are the elite war fighters in the world. Do not make the navy soft, continue to harden. America needs these men.

Dont change the training, increase the medics and corpsman surrounding the training

WTF. It’s supposed to be dangerous and push your body and mind to the limit.
But, they should have medical personnel nearby.

Geary was in buds class 234. He was in the documentary quite a bit. Great leader and guy.

It's sad that the young fella lost his life.

The American Navy Seals are the best in the world because of their extremely taxing selection process.

I am sure they and the family are extremely heart broken about the loss of the late gentleman's life.

My heart goes out to the family. Thos was a tragic accident. However, the tuff rigorous standards should never be lowered. The Medical Department should be held accountable for there lack of proper care and attention.

Do not change this training. We need tough capable men to fight Americas justifiable battles.

I’m surprised they didn’t talk about the illegal steroid use. Did that have anything to do with it

As tragic as this situation was, this is what the training IS!!!! In fact, the NSW website that overviews BUDS specifically notes that there is a chance of death during training. Also, it is my understanding that there are also deaths attributed during the ongoing training exercises once you become a SEAL. It is the nature of the business. God bless these warriors who voluntarily put it all on the line for their country. Our country NEEDS people like these men!!!

They are navy seals the most Elite soldiers with the hardest training, he knew what he was getting himself into along with all the other candidates that join they’ll tell you that themselves 💯

Surprised there isn't more medical complaints considering the insane stories you hear the Seal recruits have to endured for 6 weeks.

He was training to be a bad motherfuccer, he knew the risks, it’s unfortunate all around

Sounds like the recruit knew what he was getting into. It's called Hell Week for a reason. Capt. Geary not only served for 20+ years in the military, received the Stockdale award for leadership excellence, and also produced high-quality Seals during the height of Covid? Sounds like an excellent leader to me, but he was thrust into an extremely unfortunate situation, which looks like it'll tank his hard-earned career. My heart goes out out him

BUDS is designed to be tough, and have a high attrition rate. The training has to insure there is safety, as 75-90% of these very fit candidates will not make it through. If "lungs are abnormal, and there is swelling in legs, get the person to a hospital. When at a hospital get labs done, X-rays of the lungs, and find out why are the legs swollen. Swollen legs? Is it cellulitis (skin infection), acute heart failure (can happen if there are severe lung problems) kidney problems ? I have no issue with the toughness that SpecOps go through. The training Americans go through is more humane than what the British go through. Have all the utmost respect for British spec ops by the way. Safety has to a concern foremost, and accountability needs to be there also.

My heart goes out to the family of that young man for their loss, but the standards are set for a reason and unlike the Army which has weakened their standards to allow women to graduate Ranger School, these young men have to be able to overcome many obstacles in the combat environment, many of which the civilian population will never understand.

Navy seal captain went through the same training

Let’s not forget that Captain Geary found PED’d in his car and the medical examiner found the heart of Mullen to be enlarged by 63%

The reporter asked stupid questions by saying “is there anyone you blame” what the hell does that mean, no Navy SEAL is going to oust an active duty seal by name dropping them.

You are training the best of the best, the 1% of the 1%. Training does not need to change because this is how you separate who is capable of the job or not.

There's an interesting symmetry of ABC showing training stock footage from Geary's very own BUD/S class 234
