    Hey, this is where my ability to remember stupid shit I don’t want to comes into play!

    SEAL Team 6 DOES imply that there are 5 other SEAL teams… if you don’t know any better. It’s literally the reason it was called team 6 and not 3.

    At the time, there were two SEAL Teams, SEAL Team ONE and SEAL Team TWO. Marcinko named the unit SEAL Team Six in order to confuse Soviet intelligence as to the number of actual SEAL teams in existence.

    Yes, you knew that. Not everyone that read your post did, but now they do.
