Not add Fuel to the fire, and let me preface this by saying I'm totally Marine Corps Biased, but the Navy Seals reputation cannot be totally unwarranted. It's not all Hype. Sure there is some hype around SEAL team 6, but like Delta Force there existance was kept secret for a long time. Who's better? I don't know, and no one has claimed they are better. I've never met a SEAL or a Delta Force guy, so I can't get their opinion.
But either way we will never know every mission they've been on. We only know of the one's we do know. And recently they seem to involve ST6. I think when it comes down it, it's more of a political choice than anything else. The US has several forces that can take on Hostage rescue missions, which essentially is what the bin Laden mission was. The only thing going for the SEALs right now is this guy:
William H. McRaven - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
USSOCOM commander Adm. McRaven (Which just sounds Badass) was a former Navy SEAL commander. Guess who he probably picks to go deep on every play?
How the SAS vs SBS conversation got started, I don't remember but it's just the same argument just on the other side of the pond. Still I think the US needs multiple types of these units as do other world powers. Which is better is almost impossible to quantify. Still I can imagine ST6 and Delta are equals to each other, and better than most, only for the fact their members are more seasoned than most other Spec Op forces.
Which team allows the Fattest members is a ridiculous topic. None of these guys are fat. And even if they could somehow put on extra weight, they would probably lose it the minute they get deployed. Thats why they invented this stupid looking thing:
