Travis, a question if I may. What is protocol on head shots versus center mass on an operation like this?

Firstly, there is no body armor on the head (and if there is one, like a helmet, you can see it.) Secondly, center mass shots may be survivable; two shots to the head from anything at or above .223 are not.

SEALs practice mainly headshots in CQB. They assume their targets are wearing body armor. No 2+1. Just two to the head.
