Why are highly trained scarce and valuable specialists like SEALS being used for a mission like this that would be more appropriate for Rangers or airmobile infantry? If no one else was available than I would understand. Nonethelesw it would seem that you should save these guys for tasks that are appropriate for their unique skill level.

I know. Afghan soldiers onboard. 'Hmnn' indeed.

A helicopter full of SEALs would be too much for a martyr to resist.

All they'd need is a single grenade.

I think I'll hold out for more information to become available, if it ever does.
