R.I.P. sailor.
Something's wrong with that story, though, as JFK didn't become president until 1961.

"Something's wrong with that story, though, as JFK didn't become president until 1961."
Probably Senator Kennedy? At the time?

"Something's wrong with that story, though, as JFK didn't become president until 1961."Official SEAL website says the first SEAL was commissioned in '62, so Kennedy might have had a hand in it.
Would have been one of the few things he got right.

Hooah! I tip back this measure of Jim Beam Black for a true hero and American to emulate.

The only easy day was yesterday! Rest in peace and may God bless you. Myself, I hate jumping into cold water. You are a better man than I, Roy Boehm.

To: Redbob
The article does specifically say he was commissioned to start the SEAL team by Kennedy in 1960, so the writer made a mistake somewhere.
To: Gritty
I knew him some years by various e mails and we changed stuff.
May He rest In peace.
