Message: [QUOTE="Tac2D, post: 33915"] My two cents on this...for coasties it's more of an opportunity to gain insight into a culture that the CG has never dealt with before. With the uprising of the DOG and the MSRT, there are a lot of unanswered questions. Everything from our SOP's (which are still being developed) down to what kind of boats we are going to use. Currently at the MSRT we do have prior SOF operators as our "advisors", but it cannot replace actual training/experience. The SEALS are only taking, I think, three people. Two enlisted and one officer. It's not like they're opening it up to everyone. I say let it ride, see what happens. I think it's a really good way for coasties to start devloping their own SOP's and what not for the new CG. And remember the coast guard also likes to "reinvent the wheel", so whatever they may take from the experience, I'm sure the CG will find a way to put their own spin on it. [/QUOTE]
