God Bless yer kid, I hope she came back safe and births lots of cute little babies.

I knowed a couple of SEALs in my day, just in passing, but you couldn’t melt me and pour me on those men. Pal of mine told me about when he was a submariner and they picked some of ‘em up after some mission somewhere. They would sit around in the galley and compare scars and laugh. Me and my mountain bike buddies compare scars and laugh, but none of ours are from gunshot or knife wounds.

Stay safe FReeper.

Yup, she’s good and thank you.

As one story went, most of our ‘regular’ guys would just stand there in awe of the Seals. Badassery just oozed off them. Not arrogant or anything, just had an aura that said ‘don’t FXXX with me.’ She said they’d come in covered in crap, no markings/insignia apparent under the dust, dirt etc. and you just ‘knew’ who they were.

That takes some doing ;)
