Yeah. We need billions more to just go back to the Moon (let alone Mars) and we just don't have it in the budget :(

Im not in a position to judge the veracity of the claims, but I have also heard from reliable sources that the average US grunt is pretty damn average. No idea about the special forces guys.

He's talking about Navy SEALS though, who are widely known as being the most elite fighting force in the whole world.

By Americans. You guys always think you’re better than you are.
Look up their objectively insane training process and say that they're " compared to" other countries' special forces.
quote:
The fourth week of Basic Conditioning is known as Hell Week. This is when students train for five days and five nights solid with a maximum total of four hours of sleep. Hell Week begins at sundown on Sunday and ends at the end of Friday. During this time, trainees face continuous training evolutions. During Hell Week, trainees get four meals a day -- sometimes MREs, but usually hot meals of unlimited quantities. Eating hot food is a substitute for being warm and dry. It gives a needed psychological boost to tired trainees, many of whom are nearly sleeping while they eat.
Pretty much every evolution during Hell Week involves the team (or boat crew) carrying their boat -- inflatable rubber Zodiacs -- over their heads. Timed exercises, runs, and crawling through mud flats are interspersed throughout the five-and-a-half days. The largest number of trainees drops out during Hell Week.

And you're basing that on? Have you gone through both the Australian special forces training as well as SEAL training? Have you spoken with many Navy SEALS about their training? Do you have any knowledge about the subject at all?
