Lets compare apples to apples here ...

... and the fact that these two are working as a team should not be lost.

I've worked with 82d and they are good. I worked with the SEALS and the same. But, you know what..we are always busting each others chops about how we do things in how we operate and such. It is all taken lightly but even in combat, you still get it..to lighten the air if you know what i mean. You always have the one guy that can put a smile on everyones face when you are about to shit your pants.

IT'S THE SOLDIER


It's the soldier, not the reporter
Who has given us freedom of the

It's the soldier, not the campus
ORGANIZER,
Who has given us the freedom to
DEMONSTRATE

It's the soldier, not the lawyer,
Who has given us the right to a
FAIR TRIAL.
It's the soldier who salutes the flag,
Serves under the flag
And whose coffin is draped by the flag,
Who gives the protester the right to burn the flag.

Good point. The Army sends a sergeant first class to a detail likes this...the Marine Corps sends a squared away corporal.

Power down in the Corps.
