Someone who has the stones to hang in for one day of SEAL training, let alone four whole months of it, probably has more strength and credibility than you could ever imagine.
Oh yeah credibility to say that even if he didn't complete Navy Seal training, that makes him a Navy Seal.
That's an insult to every Navy Seal.
OH BTW, I bet his drug habit got in the way of his training.
Thank God he is out, IMHO.
He certainly doesn't have the strength keep from bragging.

What do you want to bet that he's including boot camp in those four months since SEAL bootcamp is different?
BUD/S indoctrination = boot camp = 5 weeks maybe six if he had to wait for a company to form and maybe 7 or 8 or 9 if he didn't pass the BUD/S Physical Screen Test the first time which must be passed to begin training in the First Phase BUD/S. He has four chances (ie weeks) to pass.
First Phase - Basic Seal Conditioning = 8 weeks Advanced physical conditioning (running, swimming, and calisthenics) which grows increasingly difficult. The third week is known as "Hell Week." It's five and a half days of continuous training, with a maximum of four hours sleep for the the entire week. This is the week he likely washed out on. 9 or 10 weeks + 3 weeks probably = "four months" in druggie speak.
Second Phase - Combat SCUBA DIVING = 7 weeks - he didn't make it this far at any rate.
Third Phase - Land Warfare = 9 weeks - nope.
Post-BUD/S SEAL traning =
3 weeks basic parachute training at Army Airborne School.
15 weeks at Naval Special Warfare Center for SQT
Upon completion of SEAL Qualification Training (SQT)qualified personnel are awarded a Naval Special Warfare designation and assigned to a SEAL Team.
Total = 47 weeks minimun = 11 months + (more likely 50-52 weeks) - so Ian Albert, eyewittness and Helriggle's "best friend" didn't get real close to being a Navy SEAL in those "four whole months" imho.
That's an insult to every Navy Seal.It sure is.
ANYONE who's gone through 4 MONTHS of that training is not to be taken lightly. Most people who have to quit at that point had to drop because of a medical condition.
The medical conditions are screened out prior to ANY training. It wasn't a medical condition unless his C.C. beat the hell out of him for being a goldbrick.
Sorry if I got a little hot, but I really take it personally when navy seal training gets disrespected like that.
Me Too! So next time, know what you're talking about, okay?
