Marine Special Operators Get Their Own Insignia Pin

Heck yeah. But hey if the Navy Seals want to be a soldier of the sea too, than may I suggest that they turn in their kaki s and start real training in our Boot Camp from scratch. Yeah I said from the beginning. Heck who do you think are guarding our ships at float, the Seals? How about our U.S. Embassy's abroad. Yes, your answer is correct again. The Marine Corps. Do I need to say anymore? Have a wonderful Marine Corps day gentleman and ladies, I MARINES.

CPO Randy Francis - CPO Francis, I totally agree with you on that statement. BUT, sure we didn't develop the amphibious tradition either right? Go tell that to LTGEN Brute Krulak, USMC ( Ret ) FMFPAC CG. Deceased. Also Chief you need to get speed up on the National Security Act of 1947 and it's current ammendments. I do believe that we have another Chairman, JCOS as a Marine again right?

Semper Fidelis CPO,

CPO Randy Francis - Chief, You need to show this Marine Gunner where it state's that for the Seals or any other high tech low drag unit that is currently serving in our branch of services today. Can you tell this Gunner where the HMFIC did you get that wet drawers from. Enough laughter for this old War Dog. Goodnight folks and goodnight "Chesty" wherever you are.

Semper Fidelis,

1stSgt,
The UDTs weren't the only unit that later became the SEALs; the Navy had their own unit called the "Scouts & Raiders" (not to be confused with the Marine Raiders), originally a combined Army/Navy unit which later became completely Navy, who were involved in underwater reconnaissance and maritime amphibious raids as directed by the Navy. This unit was absorbed along with the UDTs into the SEALs, and had shared history with the Amphibious Reconnaissance Battalion when both units were within the Observer Group.

I agree. We shouldn't decorate our Marines like the Army Christmas trees that exist today.
