U.S. Navy SEALs



The United States Navy SEa, Air, and Land Forces (commonly known as Navy SEALs) are the Special Operations Forces of the U.S. Navy. In this role, SEALs operate in a wide variety of circumstances, from direct combat, to reconnaissance, as well as counter-terrorism and hostage situations. The Navy SEALs originate from the Amphibious Scout and Raider School, established 1942, which trained demolitions specialists to make note of obstacles affecting beach landings and guide assault forces around them. This led to further training in underwater demolitions, and today they conduct a far wider variety of operations. The Navy SEALs are known to work in concert with other US military and intelligence groups such as USSOCOM and the CIA. There are currently 10 SEAL teams deployed in various parts of the world.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare
SEAL Team Six is mentioned in the level Shock and Awe, where they assisted the Nuclear Emergency Support Team in the failed attempt trying to disarm Al-Asad's nuclear device.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
The Navy SEALs make at least one appearance in the campaign of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, in the level Of Their Own Accord, where they can be seen taking off from the Department of Commerce in a Little Bird helicopter. During the attack on the Russian forces around the World War 2 Memorial, the helicopter carrying the SEALs is shot down.

However, it is very likely that members of this unit appear in the levels The Only Easy Day...Was Yesterday and The Gulag as a part of Task Force 141.

In Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, the Navy SEALs is also a playable faction in two multiplayer maps, Karachi and Sub Base.

Trivia

 * 50 Cent does the voice acting for the Navy SEALs' multiplayer announcer.
 * Despite being an American Special Forces unit, in multiplayer some of the Navy SEALs wear British flag patches. This is due to the Navy SEALs character models being borrowed from Task Force 141 scuba divers, who are of both American and British nationality.
 * The SEALs in multiplayer are relatively quiet, whispering lines in a deep voice, never shouting at all.
 * Sometimes in multiplayer, the character model for "Soap" MacTavish can be seen as another player.
 * The Navy SEALs are often recognized as one of the best naval special forces units in the world, mostly because of the heavy amounts of underwater training members of this unit go through. On top of this they have one of the longest training courses of all Special Operations Forces in the world.
 * The Only Easy Day...Was Yesterday is the Navy SEALs' motto, it is the first sign you see when you enter the Basic Underwater Demolition/SEAL Training (BUD/S) compound in Coronado, California.
