seal cold weather training

A cold-weather training instructor monitors U.S. Sailors as they spend five minutes in near-freezing water as part of SEAL Qualification Training in Kodiak, Alaska, April 8, 2009. Candidates are completing the rewarming exercise after spending 48 hours in the Alaskan mountains navigating the rugged terrain and surviving frigid conditions. The 28-day cold-weather course is part of the yearlong process to become a Navy SEAL. (DoD photo by Mass Communication Specialist 2nd Class Erika N. Manzano, U.S. Navy)

  1. May God Bless each and every one of them!!

  2. These are pictures that military moms should not see. I can’t help it, but I want to get a blanket and hot cocoa for each of them. There is a reason innate nurturers can not be military leaders – so I’ll leave the tough things for the capable, and I’ll send the care packages and cocoa. :)

    And I share Sue’s sentiment: God bless them richly!
