I did 510 days SEAL training.
To be a Navy SEAL, it's three and a half years training before you're ever put into harm's way the first time.
All SEALS in my mind are equally elite. It doesn't matter if you're SEAL Team Two, One, Six, 10, it doesn't matter. All SEALS are equally elite.
Part of the attraction of the SEAL teams was the incredible tests that it offered.
We're trying to get the SEAL community back to where we think it should be - quiet professionalism.
Young men often seek tests and trials, and to me, BUD/S training - basic underwater demolition/SEAL - seemed like the ultimate test.
I love my country, and the mental and physical demands of the Navy SEALs was what I had been training for my whole life growing up in Montana.
I started in SEAL Team 3 in 2008.
