US Navy SEALs

The US Navy SEALs are first and foremost, combat swimmers and underwater demolition experts. Although SEAL teams operate in the full range of tactical environments of sea, air and land, their defining role is amphibious special operations. So here's a collection of 1/6 US Navy SEALs.

SEALs are officially organized into eight teams of about 200 men and 50 officers, specializing in special ops with the ability to operate in all types of environment - temperate, desert, artic, jungle or urban. They are also trained for VBSS (Visit Board Search and Seizure) and are part of the four Naval Special Warfare Groups (NSWGs).
