The pictures look like SEAL training. I met a SEAL that had 9 Purple Hearts. Tough mild mannered type of guy.
There was a statement by the Marines that there were few acceptable trainees nowadays. This is quite a change form WWll.

Do the CTRs still get their basic Morse code training at Imperial Beach as they did 50 years ago?

Good morning, mountainlion...yes, SEAL training. Amazing wheat those guys must do.
Sad how excellence has taken a back seat.
