~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~MILITARY DIFFERENCES:~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

[Grasshopper27]

An Army Ranger jumps into the dark void from a C-130, lands in the bush at 0245, night moves 18 kms with a 40 pound pack, 15 pound weapon, basic combat-load ammo and when he views his target says, "Man, this is the sh|t..."

A Navy Seal HALO's behind the lines, swims 22 kms to his target, converts to land and does a 12 kms night movement, with 50 pounds of gear, 15 pound weapon, fighting knife and upon seeing his target says, "Man, this is some deep sh|t...."

A Force Recon Marine is forced to parachute 15 kms farther away from his target due to bad weather. He makes up the time double-timing 32 kms in daylight, with a 60 pound pack, 15 pound weapon, K-Bar, extra ammo, must dispatch three enemy troops with his hands enroute and upon viewing his target finally says, "Man, I love this sh|t....

"An Air Force Airman sits in his Class A's, coffee in hand, stereo playing Garth Brooks, air-conditioner pumping only to find his e-mail POP server is down and says, "Man, what kinda sh|t is this?"

Ha ha. But you are comparing the elite to a common airman. It would be more accurate to say an AF Combat Controller parachutes from 50,000 feet into uncharted enemy territory with only one extra clip of ammo. He has to remain undetected from all enemys and identify a suitable area for the marines to land. He then has to exit the enemy territory on foot, over 20 miles, remaining undetected. He says, "We're the only one's with big enough balls to do this sh|t..."
