Title: Who's quieter a SEAL or a Ninja?
Post by: rpm on October 07, 2013, 09:36:25 PM
Admiral McRaven, Commander US Special Forces Command answers the age old question sent in by 6 year old Walker Greentree.

Thanks for writing me! You did a great job drawing the Trident, it looks just like my personal coin, which I've sent you along with this letter. I only give this to very special kids, so I hope you like it.

To answer your questions: I think ninjas are probably quieter than SEALs, but we are better swimmers, and also better with guns and blowing things up. I can hold my breath for a long time, but I try not to unless I really have to.

Remember, if you want to be a SEAL, you must do two things: listen to your parents and be nice to the other kids. If you do that then you can probably be a SEAL too."

Admiral William H. McRaven

Our local Ninja parade went totally unnoticed again this year.  The only evidence that it even happened was the candy children found in their pockets after it was over.

In the water I'd imagine Seals are pretty quiet.
It is my understanding that out of the water they can make quite a racket

The SAS are reputed to be pretty good at digging a hole in your back garden and hiding there non-stop for 3 days without you knowing it. This was a standard tactic in Ireland and I'm sure it's been used for police work in the UK too.
