SEALs don't get Tridents

They already have them! Wannabes (Pollywogs, candidates) now get the Trident after STT. So it goes BUD/S, jump school, STT at the end of which you get the Trident. In the old days you went to a Team and had to complete STT +6 months probation. Contrary to popular belief, you don't stick with one swim buddy--particularly as an O. As people quit, get hurt, they change. I went to FOUR alone. The guy I swam with most went to FIVE. The person I consider my swim buddy was my XO during STT. He went to SDV TWO (Now runs PTMETRICS creator of the BODYREV)We never served together--but we should have!
