We think of seals as some (rambo) type fucker. I met a seal sniper and he was the most unassuming guy you could ever meet.

NAVAL BASE KITSAP, Wash. — A sailor fresh out the elite Navy SEAL selection course slung his gear over his broad shoulder and clomped down a steel ladder into the guts of a Navy ship to execute a difficult, dayslong mission specifically assigned to him: scrubbing the stinking scum out of the ship’s cavernous bilge tank.
Hardly the stuff of action movies, but it’s how many would-be SEALs end up. . . .

Guys who wash out of Ranger school go paint fences, mow grass, move dirt and do lots of shit details too. But they eventually move back to their unit of assignment. Different from BUD enlistments.

Back in the dawn of time, when dinosaurs still roamed the Earth, I was one of the original Special Forces Phase 1A instructors for the 18X-Rays recruited to go through the US Army SF pipeline. The big difference for the 18X recruits was that, before they ever even got to us at Ft. Bragg, they had already completed 11B Infantry training and basic airborne school down at Ft. Benning.
So they already had an MOS of 11B1P before even they got there. If they failed, they knew that they would be going down the street to the 82nd Airborne Division and there's no shame in that. Squad leaders in the 82nd loved to get failed SF recruits because they would already have all the training that we had given them, and, having just failed at something they were usually eager to try and prove themselves. Good use of highly motivated, trained Soldiers. And as long as they didn't fuck up and get a DNR (Do Not Return) in their folder, they were welcome to apply to come back through the regular pipeline and try again in a couple years, after they got some more experience. And more than a few did just that.
What the USN is doing to those guys is more fucked up than a football bat.

I agree. What they should do is say "alright man, hey you didnt make it but shit, hardly anyone does. You can go be an 03xx series in the USMC now. Nothing wrong with that"

It's purely a leadership failure. From what I right now, that's a huge problem for the entire USN, maybe the entire us.mil right now. It's cultural and there seems to be a lot of shit going on at the leadership level that would have gotten you relieved a few years ago.
The art of leadership is to take a group, raise them to their highest level of performance, and then keep them at that level for as long as possible.
Leaders have the ability to effect the entire arc of another human beings life. That authority must be balanced by a responsibility and duty to do it as well as you possibly can, every single time.
There is a big goddamm difference between telling a young man who's just starting out:
"You have failed to meet the standard and achieve your goal at this time. Go get better prepared and come back and try again later if you can."
Or telling him,
"You are a fucking failure and worthless to us. We have no use for you here, so go be a failure somewhere else, out of our sight. We're just going to shit-can you, so we can't even be bothered to waste any time or resources teaching you to be or do anything more useful."

I mean, they washed out of BUD/S. They knew what they were getting into.

They didn't though, no more than their fellow 18-year-old knows what signing their name on that school loan is going to entail. The thought of either not succeeding isn't even considered at that young age.

Joining the kiked, tranny military is fucking gay. No White man should ever do so. If you want combat training, employ private trainers and join a militia. Being subservient to pedophile trannies isn't worth it.

Such as? I am from OLD voat, but that's hardly a smirch on my reputation. Old voat was glorious. Nothing I said is false. The current US military is a fucking disgrace and anyone defending it is a piece of shit traitor faggot who needs to face the fucking wall.
