"American Sniper" Book coming out

[SkrewzLoose]

Almost done with this and I have to say that I didn't enjoy it as much as I thought I would. It got a little old hearing about how SEALs were such amazing and skilled barfighters that would fuck people up at the drop of a hat.

This line in particular: "When you go into a bar, you'll always have someone who will poke a shoulder into you or otherwise imply you should fuck off. Happens in every bar across the world, Most people just ignore things like that. If someone does that to a SEAL, we're going to turn around and knock you out."

Says the guy who flailed around in the sand and the Pacific ocean in an attempt to be a badass bar fighter/teach others how to do the SEAL slide.

Lol... Four years ago, that kind of shit would have impressed me and made me want to be a bar-fighting badass too. Now.....not so much.

Since I received the book as an SS.com Secret Santa gift I didn't want to say...but yeah, that kind of stuff got more than a little old.

There were a few more of those lines that made me roll my eyes.

And the writing was just so...fragmented.

You wouldn't have hurt my feelings. ;) I enjoyed the parts about different missions, but that was about it.

I spoke to a buddy who works for Craft Intl who told me that a movie is in the works.

I don't think they were hurting to begin with.

 

[Ravage]

Wasn't SPECWAR planing to look for more candidates in the sport community?

And they'll continue to ring that bell like they always have...

My class started Indoc with like 375 dudes, and most other classes around that time frame ('08) were well over 300 as well. We had so many guys going into 1st phase that they did a run/swim/o-course equation and rolled back the slowest 100 people just to make the class more manageable.

sigh..

ha ha ha, i was going to do research but im glad i didnt, you forgot Red Cell and Rogue Warrior! BTW, i am soooo sick of Navy SEAL shit. Not every dude is hot shit and what ever happened to "Quiet professionals" and OPSEC or just being humble. They over glorify shit. Anyone who has fought before knows that it aint all its chalked up to be. Fun? yes. Dangerous? yes. Crazy and you cant stop thinking about it from how crazy shit was or how it went down?? all the time, however, for christ sakes stop with the media coverage. un freaken believable. alot of these heinous situations came to fruition based off of poor tactics people! trust me i know!
