Temporary Archive: Suzanne Brockmann's Message Board

As you know much of our "knowledge" of SEALs before you came from fiction books. I have a few questions regarding situations we have read about in Suz's books and others compared to how these would play out in real-life.

1. Have you ever done anything humiliating to boost the morale of your men?
1a. Have you ever sung karaoke? Do you have a song you prefer?

2. (From Aly) Would you ever leave behind a “calling card” in a situation when you know friendlies are coming eventually, to let them know the SEALs had been there?

3. From EOD, did you find that people really do have a "signature" when creating explosives? Can you tell who makes it by the way it is made and/or the way it explodes?

4. Do SEALs learn how to "lose" themselves in an urban crowd for E&E? Or is this more a spy-type skill :) ?

5. Can you pick your way out of handcuffs? Or for that matter can you pick any lock?

Thanks again for your time :)
