The secret to any Special Operations success is basic: arrive on the target quickly and establish relative superiority. Simply put, take the advantage during the pivotal moment of battle.

This is no easy task for a small attacking force like the SEALs. For them the ability to sustain relative superiority often comes down to moral factors: courage, intellect, boldness, and perserverance.

"Everybody likes a hero. This nation runs on heroism - dynamic leadership and all that sort of stuff. It's our heritage, and those that don't like it... they're probably cowards."

From a video that Prahlad showed me: Discovery_-_US_Navy_SEALs_-_Direct_Action.avi. It's around 48:00.
