Seal Team 6 might have been killed in North Korea

a reply to: Zerodoublehero

That was 160th SOAR, not the Team. They don't fly the aircraft.

LOL...that's a false story.....!! ....That would mean a few thousand men ( and additional support men and women ) would have to have been inserted.....it doesn't work that way. ...False story .

a reply to: Meldionne1

Not saying I believe it but it's entirely possible a small group of team six guys were inserted into North Korea and have been compromised.

It would not mean the deaths of thousands of men, it could be a 8 man unit sent in for close recon or something

Do you remember after that helicopter crash when me and u basically spent a month trying to explain DEVGRU to people.

That was kinda fun

Operation Red Wings is a good example

If it did happen; it will never be News

If they were to go into a situation, they would send in a team of 8-ish...you are correct on that...however ....they are not there . ...the story is false. ...they are somewhere else .

Emmm it did happen it's a matter of public record they wrote a book about it, made a few documentaries and there is even a movie about the it.

MEAL TEAMS don't fly. They drive Taco Trucks. I think.

A REAL Seal team could potentially operate for weeks in the rural North Korea countryside undetected.

ALSO...I doubt an entire SEAL team would be needed for a hit. That sounds like overkill. Recruit a CLOSE associate instead. Insert undercover S. Koreans.

No...A SEAL team to take out N. Korea leader? To much.

I could see a SEAL team moving AROUND N. Korea sabotaging military installations though.

"Seal team 6 liquidated" doesn't lend itself to the notion that it's a small group of guys, though.

Particularly not when it's from supposed "Russian military experts."

Really that's just bad reporting, a sensationalist headline

Ooooh! That's the Lone Survivor incident! A huge clusterf--k that got a lot of soldiers killed. And it was totally unknown in the US until that movie came out. It's quite possible that something similar happened in NK. But I really don't want to watch a movie about it a decade from now. Lone Survivor was freakin' depressing.

SIX is not a real TEAM.

It is made up from MEMBERS of VARIOUS teams for SPECIAL missions.

Kinda my point. It's more likely that it's not reporting at all.

a reply to: Shamrock6

Like I keep saying I don't believe this.

Although it's interest when you note that there were reports of JSOC inots in training for a mission like this earlier this year

a reply to: OtherSideOfTheCoin

And the original "report"

Was posted 3 days ago...

a reply to: iWontGiveUP

Ray Thomas told Congress weeks ago that special operations forces were training both on the Korean peninsula and state-side for operations inside North Korea.

There is no SEAL team 6. Thats what the pentagon tells people because they will never divulge exactly what team went in. If there is any validity to this story we can assume that it would be one of the Coronado groups... San Diego based SEALs. That means it would be either 1, 3, 5 or 7.
