This has to be a cover story, right? If this is what happened, why would they just admit to it like this?

[-] [email protected] 49 points 8 months ago

It's a classic move, you make the cover story embarrassing enough and no one will question it

[-] [email protected] 41 points 8 months ago

100% they got ventilated by a guy in sweatpants with an AK older than himself

[-] [email protected] 10 points 8 months ago

This. It's remarkably easy to slip on a wet ladder when you're busy getting riddled with bullets from above.

[-] [email protected] 22 points 8 months ago

how would they even know this in the first place? and why would it take multiple days for the whole story to come out?

[-] [email protected] 20 points 8 months ago

Hope against hope that the political polarization has infiltrated the military and intelligence communities and the Trumpers are acting like a fifth column.

Maybe these two Marines slipped and died to own the libs!

[-] [email protected] 19 points 8 months ago

Limited hangout. When people know you’re lying and perhaps even the details (e.g. Houthis claimed they killed the seals), they’ll pivot to giving you piecemeal information. Everyone will be focused on the ladder, maybe the weapons, but they won’t ask about anything else.

i like how they are supposed to go after someone that falls in the water. The Navy demands you die in pairs.

[-] [email protected] 19 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

one weird trick the US Navy doesn't want you to know

[-] [email protected] 6 points 8 months ago

I can't prove it, but I know it's true that the first one slipped and fell and knocked the second one down.

[-] [email protected] 10 points 8 months ago

from the top rope you say?

[-] [email protected] 11 points 8 months ago

BY GOD IT'S A HOUTHI SOLDIER WITH A STEEL CHAIR!

If it was me, i would just simply not drown.

[-] [email protected] 20 points 8 months ago

Thats right

[-] [email protected] 41 points 8 months ago

warm water too. so maybe 2-3 days of delerium unless the sharks got them.

lol. transshork-happy

[-] [email protected] 29 points 8 months ago

Unless they sank from being strapped to like 50 lbs of gear. Also an awful way to go

[-] [email protected] 33 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

I think I remember reading something about seals drowning in vietnam from trying to go across rivers with gear on so that's why they developed those life jackets you see them with, lol vietnam stays winning.

  • Barbarossa I walking into a river wearing chain mail in his way to do a crusade in the middle east

  • SEALs walking into a river wearing full tactical gear

Boat ladders have a symbiotic relationship with oceanic carnivores confirmed.

[-] [email protected] 13 points 8 months ago

Seals are a staple diet for sharks.

[-] [email protected] 36 points 8 months ago

Guess basic training didn't prepare you for the no wet floor sign.

[-] [email protected] 28 points 8 months ago

blows whistle

No running on the boat!

Critical failure on a DC2 Dexterity check to climb a ladder

Critical failure on a Wisdom saving throw to not jump into the ocean at night after the first guy

[-] [email protected] 34 points 8 months ago

To be fair, they're more used to doing things like furnishing little boys and heroin to pedophile warlords in the desert

[-] [email protected] 31 points 8 months ago

Uncritical support to ladders in the struggle against imperialism.

[-] [email protected] 20 points 8 months ago

this must be the escalation ladder I keep hearing about

[-] [email protected] 29 points 8 months ago

Folks just because your commander in chief falls down the stairs doesn't mean you're supposed to as well

[-] [email protected] 26 points 8 months ago

How long until Hasan gets the ladder on stream?

[-] [email protected] 26 points 8 months ago

They were pirates hahahaahahahababahahah the Americans were pirates hahahhahaj

[-] [email protected] 6 points 8 months ago

who would win:

  • the elite of the elite of the most expensive military on the planet
  • a slightly moist poopdeck
[-] [email protected] 25 points 8 months ago

Isn’t getting onto boats and swimming a core skill for SEALs? Alongside eating clams?

[-] [email protected] 10 points 8 months ago

So is lying about what really happened.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 8 months ago

Seals do not lie.

Sea lions do.

DOD cheaped out and got them walmart boots so they could send the difference to ukraine

Navy Banana PEEL

[-] [email protected] 17 points 8 months ago

To be fair, he was busy writing his memoir of the war.

[-] [email protected] 16 points 8 months ago

It’s Daily Mail, but fuck it I don’t care if they want to make the empire look extremely stupid whether it’s true or not

[-] [email protected] 16 points 8 months ago
[-] [email protected] 15 points 8 months ago

Hitman speedrunners put a banana peel there. Sad
