    Any SEAL/UDT followers out there.....

    I don’t know a lot about SEAL/UDT class numbers and graduation dates...

    Class number 211
    Graduation date 1970
    Graduation from Coronado

    I saw a gentleman today in the local grocery store. He had a UDT shirt on, baseball cap, PO 1st class rank, basic EOD badge.

    When he turned around I thanked him for his service and also noted that he was a “Twin Pin”. He had no clue of what I was talking about. Said he graduated EOD in Coronado as well. I know EOD school has been in a couple different locations, but I don’t believe it’s ever been in Coronado.

    With that being said, I think he was full of shit.

    He’s a local guy to me. I dislike people who BS about military service. I’d like to have the proper knowledge before I say anything else.

    Not 100% sure but I think that EOD school was in Coronado in the mid 1960s.

    Caveat- I am in no way a SEAL expert. Just remembering a conversation I have once with a SEAL. I could not be recalling the details correctly.
    In no way do I make any money from anyone related to the firearms industry.

    If you mean Mr. Brink, he works at the Navy Seal History Museum so I suspect he knows a thing or two about the subject. Stephen Ambrose was never in the military and was only 8 years old on "D Day" but he probably knew more about that subject than any person alive in the 20th century.

    That said, I'd also recommend SOCNET, it's their favorite game.
    It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.

    Chuck, we miss ya man.
