RE: Tragic Details Emerge on SEAL Team 6's Fatal Rescue Mission
Generally speaking, when you have a mission that could be called "a suicide mission", it get's handled by SF. That's why they're SF.

Rangers don't leave men behind, and we don't leave Rangers behind.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Quote:isn't it quite odd that this team should be used as conventional shock force to relieve normal forces pinned down in an attack

Maybe they were what was available on short notice?

Very touching. Such a tragic loss and yet as she said, she was indeed blessed to have the love of her life even for a short time. Sad

And for the record, blessings for me aren't something exclusive to religion or the religious. For me, blessings are the best of what life has to gift you. The privilege, the joy, the grace, the happiness, that makes living just that much more beautiful.
