Those cats look like Agency-types. ETA: Assuming they're Americans, which, I kinda forgot this was a global SOF thread.  |

The FBI belongs in this thread too?

It appears to be some kind of competition speed thing. I wonder how hardcore that retention is. It must be seriously good for all the running, jumping, falling and crawling that goes with sending and receiving lead! |

The gym at 3rd Special Forces Group (Airborne), Fort Bragg, NC. This gym is part of SF's Tactical Human Optimization Rapid Rehabilitation and Reconditioning (THOR3) program, which treats an SF soldier as a professional athlete. The Army employs professional strength and conditioning coaches, physical therapists, and dietitians to develop and implement customized programs for each soldier according to deployment schedules and mission-specific needs. THOR3 includes a classified 10-part strength, speed, agility, power, and endurance test. (Photo by Hope Myers) On a Mission to Save You |

(Feb. 4, 2010): Special warfare combatant-craft crewmen conduct an open-ocean swim in near-freezing temperatures. Training in these conditions is essential for special warfare missions in similar weather. (U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 2nd Class Tim Miller) Gotta say, the 2nd pic seems staged. Suits are not wet except where they waded in. Belts and everything else are dry. Should be water beading off the velcro patches on the shoulders at least. I have the same suit, wore it for many years, it dosent come out of the water dry like that. Nope, no idea why it would be staged, just my opinion as someone who recognizes and has worked with almost half the people in the modern Navy pics in this thread. Edit: And is in 2 pics so far I seen here. They are just entering the water. Their fins are already on so they are walking backwards into the surf. You would think that someone who has the same suit would know what they are talking about. You do realize that DocSteve is in a couple of pics in this thread? |

Swedish special forces? No. As discussed previously, they're Belgian. Those are FNC's, not AK-5's. Also, the file name lists them as Belgian.
