Navy SEALs Explained - What is a Sea Air Land?

Navy SEALs are known around the world for having the most physically demanding training requirements in the SOF Community. I had the honor of working with SEALs in 6 different countries over the course of my career. They are fit, they are intense, they are aggressive. They live and die by their motto…. “The only easy day was yesterday.”

This video is a part of the “What is” / “Explainer” playlist for Special Operations units. I have highlighted essential pieces of Unclassified information about the most important Units within the Special Operations community. Each video is plus or minus 3 minutes.

At what point in the SEAL pipeline are you offered a book deal?

When I was in HS, I was in the Sea Scouts. One of our leaders was a retired SEAL officer from the vietnam era. One year, he was giving us some water survival training during our annual BSA swim qual. He mentioned something about SEAL training and one of the girls in the group asked what a SEAL was - honest question, she had no clue - His reply was classic; "We sneak into places and blow things up." He went right back to the lesson material without missing a beat.
Ironically, he wrote a couple of novels long before it became popular...

They are extremely dangerous in the water, and are absolute monsters on land. Much respect! Great job as always with this video.

Once the space force is finalized, the 'E' will become 'Extraterrestrial' and SEAL will be complete.

Please make one for SARC and one for Recon Marine, thank you 🙏

I know that I'll never be as strong as a man compared to a seal. Thank you all for your service, it's good that we have strong people like you defending our country.

A ranger, force recon, and a seal walk into a bar.

The seal writes a book about it.

I just got my SO contract and I head out to Great Lakes this summer!

If anyone’s wondering what the sleep deprivation is like. I have never been through BUDs or hell week, however I did experience a grueling 3 day test as a young teen with some sleep deprivation. You reach a point in which you just go numb, and just do as your told and don’t stop. You’re so tired you’re not tired, you’re so exhausted you can’t quit.

Delta and/or DEVGRU. Please do the tier 1's!

Marine Recon, Force Recon, SARC, and the Regimental Reconnaissance Company from the 75th!

Just want to say that I absolutely love your videos!! I know you take your time to make them and your editing skills do not go unnoticed

[omarrp]

I like how they go through BUD/S wearing BDU's. I feel like it makes sense to wear an old uniform no longer used (regularly) for training purposes. For example it seems more cost effective to go through the supply of BDU's & ACU's (or any other pattern not in use) in Basic training rather than ruining the new stuff, then once they graduate issue them OCP's

I believe the photo at the end on the sub hull was ODA 775 - 7th SFG(A). As in army SF.

[stevieg.]

Any chance you can do a video on Navy EOD?

[adrianherrera]

How about an explanation about delta. I am sure you came across them in your career.

[codyleventhal]

Videos on forecon, recon and SARC!!🙏🙏

[sfdanceron]

Watching some of the water training, I'm surprised even 25 make it.
