At our shop we take bets on when the first "Navy Seal" will show up. They
usually show up with a huge bear gut and the token Navy hat. They claim
the Seal in the first few words. We even have a guy that shows up in a
rubber drysuit complete with dry gloves (I'm not making it up). If we spot
them outside we usually scramble to the back room, so we are not the one
who is stuck dealing with them (the last one back loses).

The only Seal I have met around here never mentioned his training, or
bragged about anything. We knew him for a long time before we found out.

It's funny that most non-divers think you have to be a Seal in order to
be a good diver, and it is assumed that they are trained for everything.
