2. A high percentage of them ARE injured in training, though.

The Navy apparently has no compunction against ruining perfectly good sailors in its SEAL training.

US Army Special Forces has a much more sensible, yet no less rigorous training regimen. And quite frankly, if our JCS Chairmen wre not an Admiral, SF would have - and SHOULD HAVE - been picked for the job, since it is more within their mission description.

The Onion aside, I get sick of the crap uninformed civvies spout about SEALS. Especially since their mission record is not a terribly successful one overall.
