I was just wondering if anybody on this board is is a Vietnam era SEAL. I am doing a report for my history class and I would like to ask some questions. Any help would be great, thanks.

I know one. He was interviewed quite a bit for the book "Brave Men Dark Waters" by Orr Kelly. He works near me and he's a pretty cool guy. He's not much for e-mail though so unless you're in the Northern Virginia area I probably won't be able to help you much.

Sure. Oh, ok. Maybe if you post your city and state and someone in NAVYSEALNET can contact you with names. Or call the UDT-SEAL museum.
