Navy SEALs?

[JROTCdudett]

Haha can I really sue the U.S Navy if I wanted to be a Navy SEAL? I'm not going to but it's just a qestion and many of my friends say so. Well the Navy recuitors were at my school yesterday and I saw a brochure to be a Navy SEAL and I read the fine print it said "By law, you must be a male to qualify" What would happen if I really became the first women to be a Navy SEAL? Haha that would probably be amazing! Opinions?

I would have just said "useless" but the forum said that post would be too short.

Haha, I see well Marine Corps is my thing Navy SEALs just an option.

What is it with people that want and think that they'll get to be an Airborne Scuba Sniper right off the bat?

I remember working recruiting, and having applicants come in, thinking they were going to get to be JTF-2 6 months after joining.

You have to learn to crawl before you can walk, and then you learn to run. And MAYBE after that, you'll be a competitor.

Spec Ops standards are always a good goal to strive for, it isn't all raspberries and cream to get there.

Not even if you're a male with that attitude. Its like its their "backup school" or something...

[FeelinFroggy]

The training isn't available to women. And in all honesty, I couldn't see a woman on earth complete it. Just my opinion.

Wanting to become a SEAL can not be just an "option". You have to want it. Want it BAD. Attitudes like yours are for people who will NEVER pin on my Trident.

Let me guess, you watched G.I. Jane and it tickled your fancy, didn't it?

Des is right, I do have that problem to, I think I'm going to Marine MARSOC. My friend was guaranteed Airborne school but you know what he didn't get to go. He has to wait to go through his unit. JROTCdudett females can't be in a combat position, if you want to tickle your fantasy of Female's in combat read a book called Amazonia by James Brady, It has a Female ranger. I think you'll like it.

I had that problem... then I took a step back, and realized:

"If anything, I probably won't make it."

Heck, even expecting to be a Marine is slightly a stretch for me, but I'm working towards it. To get anything in this world, you have to work for it... it just doesn't fall into your lap...

Your right, to be a Marine you have to want it more than everything else. My recruiter told me it goes way beyond that also, you haveto change everything and conform to the Corps. He told me It's like woeing a woman"You have to put everything into it to get into it" hahaha. I love that saying. It's true(for both things). Just believe in yourself, I believe in you.
