Hilarious.
Very difficult to conduct UW when you have no language, cultural, or UW training.
ADM McRaven's language requirements for SF are almost all ODAs at 3/3s and 2/2s by the end of the next five year cycle.
SEALs are directed to have at least one 1/1 at the end of the same period.
If they were serious about this, the standards would be the same.
I am also pretty sure that there is no formal instruction in BUDS or the SEAL course for UW, much less 60 years of institutional focus on it.
What are they going to do with their Gs, hire terps or use pointie-talkie techniques?
Get real.

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat." - President Theodore Roosevelt, 1910
