2. Who/ what are the Navy Seals? • “The Only Easy Day Was Yesterday”, a quote of the Navy Seals. • The Navy Seals are the special forces of the United States and part of the Navy. • I got interested in this field because I have always wanted to join the military and since my mother wont let me join the marines, I’ll decided to be a Seal. Also, I know a lot about guns and their mods. • If I want to be a seal I have to go to college and I have to have a degree in math and science. Plus, you need to be in great physical condition to get in as well.

9. Summary • I want to the join the Navy Seals because I want to join the navy and I didn’t want to be stuck on a ship so the seals were a good alternate. Also, I have always been fascinated by the seals so I have always wanted to be one. I cannot see myself sitting in an office for a job either. I am most excited about seeing the dogs that the seals use in combat. Plus, they get all the newest high tech gear so that would be cool as well.
