I'm pretty sure I might have the original slide of the above pic that came from Gary Smith.

 

I am sure that you are right Spike. thumbsup.gif

IIRC this pic may have come from a dealer webstite selling one of Smith's uniforms.

Great Photos. Has anyone ever seen a photo of Gov. Jesse "The Body" Ventura in his seal uniform? He was supposedly a SEAL in Vietnam. What about awards & decorations?

That's my pal, Little Danny! Who I helped to get into the Navy Seals!

At night, I'd tell my friend true stories of my come from behind underdog achievements and winning the day. One day, he asked me to get him in condition for the Seal Team. I said sure! Why not! To make a long story short. He passed the gruelling obstical course. My buddy became the smallest Navy Seal in the history of the Vietnam war, 4 feet 11 inches tall. What we had in common was that, we both liked to overcome impossible challenges and win.

This is a Huey helicopter, not a Sea Wolf.
