“While boarding the Dhow in rough seas - such searches are considered among the most dangerous naval missions - one SEAL team member fell into the ocean and a second tried to recover him.”
A Navy Seal drowned? Damn, didn’t think they could do that.
Now they are with the seals.
It’s evolution.
Seals are tuskless, they stood no chance against the walrus
And what about the egg man?
It’s hedgehogs the egg man stands no chance against.

Nothing on Iran trying to sabotage the world?

Sending my nation’s professional wet works crew to the other side of the world in order to assassinate some guys who took over a ship flagged to Panama, because it serves a national security interest to keep a cargo ship full of fleshlights from doing an end run around the Horn of Africa.
And if you question any of this shit, or suggest other nations can do it now too, you are no better than that guy the CIA backed to do freedom fighting in Afghanistan back in the 70s.
Just swim, I thought they would cover that in basic training
Cheap shot
Umm it’s kinda their job
I hope you’re respected in similar fashion some day and it hurts.
For a guy called mechanical jester you seem to take things awfully seriously.
Mocking SpecOps who are KIA is something generally off limits for me. I handed over a hundred of our flags to surviving family so I’m humor dysfunctional in that area. However… jokes? Okay that’s kinda funny. Best if served from combat vets I think. I regret making a fuss. Dysfunctional.
From my experience with soldiers they probablywould have made worse jokes/ mockings about anything and everything including other soldiers and people they have killed.
And since they also died attacking a civilian vessel I don’t feel the need to show any respect in the first place.
Anything carrying weapons isn’t “civilian”, it’s a military supply ship.
Imagine thinking just because it’s not painted gray and equipped with guns that it isn’t for a military use case.
“The official said crew on the dhow, which did not have a country flag, were planning to transfer the missile parts, including warheads and engines, to another boat off the coast of Somalia.”
Looks like “Finding Out” to me.
The gallows humor is real. Coping mechanisms for traumatic jobs is real. Ever hear civilian firefighters joke around? Same. Military firefighters and combat medics probably have the darkest humor. We’ve all collectively decided we want people to be really good at killing people and blowing shit up so other people don’t kill out people and blow our shit up.
You can joke about anything, I’m a fan of dark humour. But these aren’t even jokes, they’re just spiteful remarks about 2 dead guys.
Nazi servants dying isn’t a sad event. If civilians were killed I’d be sad. Military is putting themselves in that position of their own free will.
They’re paid murderers, fuck it let em all drown.
If you’ve ever fallen off a boat into the water and been sucked under that boat and had to claw yourself back out again, you will understand why this is surprisingly non-trivial.
If you’ve been awake for 72 hours, jacked up on a pharmaceutical only God and the six most sadistic chemists at the Pentagon know about, and you just pulled yourself up on board a ship in the dead of night after tailing pirates for days, I have to image its even harder.
The Navy does prefer to kill their best and brightest in helicopter crashes. But its still very possible to get drowned to death on the job.
Maybe try holding your breath 🤷
You’ve just solved drowning for humanity, you’re a genius! Imagine how many could have been saved if only someone could have thought of that millennia ago.
