The Making of a Navy Seal is a true story told by Brandon Webb. Webb tells the story of surviving his toughest challenges and how he trains to be the best.

When the Navy sends their most elite squad, they send the SEAL’s. At the point when the SEAL’s send their elitist, they send SEAL Team Six. SEAL Team Six is a top secret group and the only way to get in, is to prove yourself as being strong physically and mentally. I Am a SEAL Team Six Warrior by Howard E. Wasdin is a emotional story of how Howard Wasdin defeated an extremely rough childhood and how he entered the extremely risky U.S. Naval force SEALS Team and Special Forces expert marksmen as a sniper. His transformation of becoming a young, poor boy into a lethal and extremely dangerous weapon will change him forever, and make him choose intense decisions. All through the book of I Am a SEAL Team Six Warrior it appears and clarifies missions that Howard had to experience. Missions no man should have to deal with. I would highly recommend this book to anyone looking for tons of action and for people with a thirst for adrenaline and a heart warming story.

In this report I will be going over the importance of training and education within the military, and how they both play very important roles to not only leaders, but the service members within our ranks. The military is constantly training and, we train as we fight. However, before soldiers train, they must be well educated in all areas in which they will be training. Proper education is the key to proper training. I will also discuss the importance of becoming better educated while serving in the military, as it will make transitioning back into the

The United States of America has not always been the world superpower that it is today. The same goes for its Navy. In the first several years of existence, the United States Navy was not a formidable fighting force. The young nation was hesitant to invest in a navy for many reasons, one of them being to prevent provoking the world powers of the time, France and Britain. On top of that, navies were very expensive to build and required a significant amount of resources to maintain, which the U.S. did not have at the time. To say that the United States Navy was ill prepared for war would be a dramatic understatement. The U.S. had a total of fifteen ships in its entire naval fleet compared to the might of the Royal Navy which possessed over six hundred warships. Even with the odds stacked against the U.S., President Madison declared war on 18 JUN 1812. The lack of size and power of the navy at the time would make it extremely difficult to satisfy the needs of the newly founded nation.

Most Seal missions are unreported and unknown to the general public. The Seals are trained to operate in small units, one or two men, or a platoon consisting of sixteen or more men. Not all Seal teams are made for everyone, in fact 80% of the men who attempt to become one, fail or will drop out. To become a Seal you must have dedication, hardwork, and a lot of commitment.

Some examples include the leatherneck and Naval Special Warfare summer cruises that are available in the Naval Academy. Leatherneck allows Midshipmen who wish to become marine officers to attend a five week course in Quantico, Virginia to learn how to lead marines. The Special Warfare summer cruise allows midshipmen who wish to become SWCC or SEAL's the chance to experience what BUDS and the lifestyle of an operator is like. This will ensure that I am both physically and mentally prepared for my career.

In 1798, the Marines are reformed as the Unites States Marine Corps, with William Ward Burrows as the Second Commandant. Under the "Act for establishing and organizing a Marine Corps”, which was signed by President John Adams on July 11th 1798, the new Marine Corps was to be made up of a battalion of 500 privates, who would be lead by a Major and a group of Privates and NCOs. The next day, Burrows was promoted to the rank of Major.

On November 10th, 1775 the Marine Corps was established in Tun Tavern during the Revolutionary War. Since that time, the Marines have played an important role in securing America’s freedom through countless battles. The Marines have distinguished themselves as an elite force specializing in military tactics which assist in defeating the enemy under any circumstance. The Marine Corps is a small branch with limited personnel which allows them the

Since its formation during the early years of our nation the United States Navy has always stood out among other militaries, playing a vital role in the protection of our own country as well as the rest of the world. Founded upon the core values of honor, courage, and commitment the Navy has continued to uphold its men and women to exceptionally high moral, mental, and physical standards for nearly 240 years. It is my favorite branch of the military and becoming an officer in it has been a goal of mine for a long time.

BUD/S trainees are put to the test to see how fast they can run the O-Course, they also do log PT,

I truly believe the Navy's most valuable assets are its people, requiring quality training, positive role models, and strong leadership. As a commissioned officer, I will combine my knowledge from the enlisted and officer communities to help shape and develop Sailors and Marines requisite to executing our mission requirements. This opportunity will allow me to become a more tactically-minded war fighter and the authority to make key decisions at precise times. More importantly, I will help sustain the Navy's leadership requirements and uphold the superb reputation of our elite Mustang community.

It is no secret that it takes a special person to be admitted into the elite group of Navy SEALS. In order to do this Kyle had to pass serval stages of test. The first was the Navy’s form of basic training, which he completed very easily. The Navy training is called BUDS, and it is used as a screening method to find those who are weak and those who could be potential SEALS. After completing this difficult training program Kyle began his grueling SEAL training.

The conflict that Chris is having is that he might miss out on the beginning of the war. Seals get deployed for six months at a time. Chris is worried that because his deployment is going to end very soon and the war is also going to start soon. Chris wants to serve his country and didn’t want to get a late start. He had also recently finished training and was a relatively new SEAL and was anxious to get into some real life situations. He was not happy he had to wait another six months to get into some action.

You have to be able to swim 50 meters wearing your battle dress uniform (BDU) and boots. The Army Physical Fitness Test used to be 240, an average of 80 points in each event such as push-ups, sit-ups and the two-mile run, but it is down to 206 with no less than 60 points in any event. Individuals need a Special Forces Medical Fitness Standard, or physical. Secret Clearances are needed but can be waived for certain periods of time, and once you have all this then you can start training to become a green beret. Special Forces Assessment (SFAS) is 24 days of intense training in which your intelligence, agility and resourcefulness will be tested. After passing the SFAS you will go into the SF Qualification Course. In this course you will go through five different phases (II-VI). Individual skills, phase II, consists of life fire, small unit tactics, land navigation, and survival skills. This phase is 13 weeks of pure intensity with minimal sleep or time to eat. Phase III is the MOS qualification in which you will receive training on the Special Forces MOS you will have, and it is about another 15 weeks. The phase IV is your collective training in which you will be evaluated on your unconventional warfare operations, air and mobile infiltrations, direct action operations, methods of instruction, common skills, your specialist, and whatever else they can think about at the moment. Phase V is your language phase and is basically picked for you

For many years the Food Service Specialist rating (FS) has experienced an abundance of challenges. Today the rating is losing personnel at an alarming rate and consequently, it cannot attract sufficient new recruits who truly desire to be Culinarians. Part of this reason is linked to image problems that plague the FS rating and create a workforce of members who are not satisfied with being FS’ in the world greatest Coast Guard. Retention and recruitment will continue to be a challenge for the FS rate. However by reshaping the image, the rating will be able to attract the very best personnel with the right drive to not only sustain but greatly improve this rating for years to come.. Following the Navy’s efforts in 2004, a name change to Culinary Specialist (CS) keeps the occupation 's definition current with today 's civilian counterpart. It better portrays the rating and contributes to a more professional image. Adopting the Culinary Specialist designation will align our Food Service rating with DoD and civilian sectors aiding in efforts to reshape and reimage the Coast Guard rate.
