Just a few quick questions

1)Has the increasing number of deployments to humanitarian and peace keeping/making operations adversely affected the SEALs war fighting capabilities?

2)How about the routine deployments with the ARGs?

I'm not in teh Teams but from what I'm told the dets go in a schedule of 18 months home then 6 months at sea..remember tho those 18 months at home aren't always at home..its just they are not deployed to a forward area for combat..

as for advese affects to war fighting skills...Most definetly not...just because most missions now are humanatarian or peace keeping (which by the way is still a combat enviorment) does not affect the skills of any team..and if it does then those teams need to stand down and train more before deploying..just my .02 $
