Title：Navy SEALs vs. Delta Force: Who's Really Tougher?
There's an on-going debate on who's tougher: a Navy SEAL or a member of the 1st special Forces Operational Detachment's Delta Unit
a.k.a. "Delta Force." Both are elite
super soldiers held in the highest regard for their specially-trained bat skills and endurance on and off the battlefield; they are the best of the best of the best of the military branches that they are operated by. But which one is the better badass?
The Delta Force
三角洲特种部队
First
let's look at the Delta Force. While made popular in pop culture via Chuck Norris in a 1986 movie
this real
yet clandestine special operations unit spawned from the U.S. Army is so secret that the U.S. government doesn't officially acknowledge its existence. It was created in October 1977 by U.S. Army Colonel Charles Beckwith in response to the many terrorist incidents of that decade. According to
the 1st Special Operations Operational Detachment Delta unit (1st SFOD-D) specializes in counter-terrorism missions
including hostage rescue
reconnaissance
and barricade operations. Delta Force soldiers e from the elite of all branches of the military
and are carefully screened both physically and mentally before entering an intensive six-month training course to be versed in - and specially trained for — a multitude of dangerous and volatile scenarios.
According to the book Inside Delta Force by Eric Haney
their training includes (but is not limited to): executive protection
espionage techniques
marksmanship for 100 percent accuracy
creating and diffusing explosives
and engagement in hostage and terrorist simulations in buildings and hijacked aircrafts - and with live rounds too
even when their fellow trainees play the parts of the hostages. Specialized troops within Delta Force are trained for free fall/HALO (High Altitude Low Opening) jump scenarios in the sky with parachutes
as well as deep underwater ones with scuba gear.
Delta Force operatives have (unofficially) been involved with rescuing the hostages in Grenada in 1983
aiding the capture of Panamanian dictator Manuel Noriega in 1989
and taking out Colombian drug kingpin Pablo Escobar in 1993.
Okay
so that's tough. But what about Navy SEALs? Are they as tough?
