Following Success of Army’s SFAB Unit, Navy Creates Security Education and Liaison (SEaL) Units

NORFOLK, VA – Following the huge success, fanfare, and funding for the United States Army’s Security Force Assistance Brigades, the United States Navy has announced the creation of Security Education and Liaison (SEaL) Units in order to conduct security cooperation and training activities with partner nations.

“The SEaL Units can serve a dual purpose,” said the Navy’s Vice Chief of Naval Operations, Admiral William F. Moran. “They are the day-to-day experts combatant commanders need to train, advise and assist our partners overseas, but they also serve to free up our Special Operations sailors to pursue more press-worthy opportunities in order to ensure we have the requisite number of book deals and movie deals in the pipeline at all times.”

Building upon the framework created by the Army for their SFAB units, the SEaL Units have appropriated iconography, titles, and lineage from established Special Operations units in order to instantly create unit pride prior to any real accomplishments, and enhance recruiting opportunities and entice sailors to join the new units.

Following the example of SFAB units issuing all Soldiers green berets for merely volunteering for the unit, upon completion of Hell Night, an intensive 7 hour test of the sailors endurance and mental toughness, and Basic Understanding of Deployment Skills Course (a two-week Navy Non-resident Training Course correspondence course) all sailors will be issued the SEaL Trydent, or Miller (as SEaL graduates refer to it), a symbol of the extensive training and harsh conditions they’ve been through.
