True, Skip.

In addition to having to be totally purpose (or goal) focused, each team member is a virtual "one man army" - trained to survive & complete any mission using their own initiative. They're the real "Impossible Missions Force", the real "MacGuyvers". The stakes - just possibly the free world remaining free.

Duncan,

I also think it is remarkable with a mission of this complexity that not a single SEAL was killed or seriously injured. Even with phenomenal training something always goes a little bit wrong. This simply was not the case. This will go down in the annals of military history, rightfully so and it is a testament to the skill and training of the American Armed Forces.

MacGuyver? We all know he could have pulled it off single-handedly, yes, with a spool of thread, a diaper-pin, some chewed-up bubble-gum and a straw :)

Man I loved that show!

Great job Skip! Very inspirational! Over in this neck of the woods, we have our own chapter of success: Entebbe! It is amazing how a flawless mission can invigorate a nation. Though at Entebbe it was almost flawless, one commando died: Capt. Yoni Netanyahu, Benjamin's little brother.
