SEALs Prepare for War

Before I snapped out of the feminist-imposed haze that had me convinced that I could be anything, I wanted to join the Navy and be either a fighter pilot (Top Gun is still my favorite 80s movie) or a SEAL. They just kick so goddamn much ass, you know? Lately I've been able to watch portions of their training courtesy of some show on some cable channel (I think it's one of the Discoverys). What glimmer of desire to be a SEAL was promptly stamped out. Of course, I do still think they kick ass, but I'm glad I get to benefit from their training without having to endure it myself.

Now, having read the Washington Post article detailing the preparations for their larger role in this second war with Iraq, I see that the training isn't half as tough as the actual job.
