Pretty good. Watched it. Also I like “Seal Team” and “Brave”.

Good series. Watched the first season when it aired. Looking forward to viewing the second season. Really enjoyed SEAL Team as well.

There is a danger when promoting a small few at the expense of the rest of the military. Now, there is a divide between special ops and "conventional," when it used to be one entity, in mutual support.
Team 6 is great. Exceptional light infantry, with little staying power, and stopping power.

Years ago, I read Richard Marcinko's book Rogue Warrior. It gave me a keen understanding of the rigors, philosophy and demands of training to be a SEAL and perform their missions.

Favorite story is when the team went out for PT in full gear. Somebody put rocks in Demo Dick’s rucksack. He ended up carrying 20 extra lbs :)

Special ops are mentally and physically demanding.
It has an 80% washout rate. One woman who applied quit.
Many aspire, few are chosen. They’re the elite of soldiers.
