In fact, the heavily redacted report says that Special Warfare Operator 1st Class Christopher Chambers, 37, and Special Warfare Operator 2nd Class Nathan Gage Ingram, 27, both from SEAL Team Three, died because they were so overloaded with gear that they simply sank after they went into the water.

LMAO 🤣

    Literally the same shit happened in Vietnam with the seals, they would go into rivers and drown because of gear. Uncle Ho stays winning uncle-ho-2

    military bootlickers boast about how hard these guys train but apparently they never drilled jumping into the water with their gear on??

      That’s not really what they train for. They train in shooting an ar15 at a child sized target, setting up drug running and people trafficking operations, train in violence and intimidation tactics. No part of that involves getting wet.

    susie-laugh All that training and they have the same marine combat effectiveness as, say, a rock...

    Hell, at least with a rock you might be able to skip it a few times, which I suppose gives it the edge in this case

    regular sailors aren't allowed to jump in the water and drown. these are the best of the best, so they get an exception and a posthumous promotion for excellence and bravery.

    "In conclusion the seals were riddled with bullets, smuggling large bricks of cocaine in their vests instead of armour plates, taunting Poseidon, ignoring a very ominous fortune cookie, wearing those nasty falling-apart ten-year-old boots they'd been told to throw out for seven years, had not completed the fishman supersoldier programme to develop gills, and were carrying twenty pairs of cotton socks to protect several bottles of Klingon bloodwine. As a result they sank."

    i hate it when two men part of an org well known for shady dealings just fail to swim, laden with gear, in a tragically insulting and embarassing accident that's mysteriously gone public

    seal - an aquatic mammal that is very adept in the water

    S.E.A.L. - special military unit that is very good at drowning in water

    aren't whites supposed to know how to swim? You had one job (okay many, but that's the only one that doesn't make you sound genocidable)
