24-Year-Old Navy SEAL Candidate Dies after Hell Week

[@signalfire15]

Very sad to hear this. I understand why the training has to be this way but it’s painful to hear about the loss of such young and promising life. I hope his family is pulling through.

[@creolequeen8642]

I remember being in Navy boot camp and trying to qualify for a “special ops” team. (I wanted to do explosives and dynamics) Anyways, there’s an assessment you have to perform to even be considered for training. Yeah, I’m not built like that. So I became an engineer. I also remember seeing those khaki shorts (training SEALS) running around Great Lakes in below freezing weather. I always had so much respect for them just because I knew only about a third of them would actually make it through. The level of dedication to try to become a SEAL is unfathomable.

[@Cantetinza17]

Yeah I was in the Navy as well and I don't live far from where that training is at. I used to workout with the divers and every so often I'd see the BUDS training and I would always pray that whether they make it through or choose to quit, I hope they stay alive. I had a shipmate go through hell week twice and then got shin splints. It's rough.

If the death is a result of the training then the process of selecting and testing applicants needs to be investigated to ensure candidates are physically able to withstand the training. I don't think it's the training that's the issue. It's either the physical and mental fitness of the ppl applying or the leaders are taking the training beyond what is necessary and endangering ppl before they've even got on the field. Not everyone can sign up to be a SEAL and there's good reason for that. But like Adrienne said health & safety still needs to be accounted for.

The navy seals is not a video game. It's a difficult job. They could loose their life and endanger their team if they aren't trained properly. God bless this young man's family. I pray that they find truth and peace.

Sad. Only love to the family of this strong young man.

[@jeffreylindsey1757]

My condolences to Kyle's family and friends for his loss. And i hope the other sailor recovers completely and finishes his training if he decides to do so. They should honor Kyles family and adorn his coffin (if applicable) with an honorary Golden Trident. He made it thru the toughest part and never quit. Lost some comrades and a friend in the Adriatic Sea on a Med cruise way back. When you train hard like its the real thing you can get killed just the same as in combat. Godspeed brother. Semper Fi

[@janwoburn447]

That's unfortunate. Though I can not even begin to imagine level of intensity training through a participatory recruitment process might not have been reason. It's very important to listen and monitor ur heart during an adrenaline rush when at it's maximum peak and continue pushing to make it through

Some people have overlying health conditions that they only discover after they undergo strenuous activities. When one has to go through hell week he will discover things about his mind, body, soul and spirit that he never knew existed. It is NOT for everyone. My heart and condolences of the families of the bereaved. I also thank the Navy Seals for the hell they endure daily to keep us protected. SALUT!!

[@AgrianRamos]

from a Mexican. It's time for U.S. Americans to questioned themselves as to why they need to have these type of trainings. as to why they have to have the highest military budget in the world, if the USA is the "greatest" country in the world, why does it have so many enemies, I mean we don't have enemies, we have you our biggest frenemy, but if I go one country by country only you guys claim to fight for freedom, we are also free, I know i'm going to get a lot of comments but still no one is going to answer my question. none the less, YOU ARE NOT THE GREATEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD, YOU NEVER BEEN. you are the richest, yes but not the greatest.. You live in fear all the time, of your life, of someone bomb you, of not having enough to pay your medical insurance or mediceal bills, and i can go on and on and on,. but hey, you do you lol

They train that way for a reason. They must have to endure circumstances we have no idea about. I want someone who is prepared and ready for combat rather than a sissy. However in recent years they have had a number of deaths from training including 9 from 2013-2016. That is unacceptable. Something is obviously wrong in how they become elite.

[@destinysamiadestinyglobal7634]

Russian troops can do push ups with only toes in the ground, hands on their backs, shirtless, outside in the snow, on the coldest day of the year. The U.S. cannot have a less demanding training regimen. The other countries are upping their game and the U.S. is a unanimous foe. Furthermore the Navy Seals is the highest branch of military might. Whoever goes into training knows what he/she is setting up for. If he is not up to it then he can train for a lower, less demanding rank. Navy Seals are therefore the least in number but have the greatest military might.

"They shouldnt need to go through that training to protect our country". Why would she even say that? She has no idea what type of situations these people go into. and then question if they get physicals before entering? Yes they get phiscals, they get monitored constantly... this is the toughest training regimine known to the Military. These women are clueless when it comes to stuff like this. Seems like Adrainne is the only one with a slight glimpse into it with her father being a Marine. But even then they'll never understand. We don't need a bunch of manicured idiots in our military.

[@mikemian]

Navy Seal training is designed to identify people who are in the top 0.1% of physical and mental toughness. They push beyond a person's breaking point to see if they can still keep going. Unfortunately, in rare occasions, the instructors forget they are meant to be the safety net, to catch recruits when they go over the cliff. Hell week is nothing compared to the operational environment these soldiers will face. This is why the training has to be so hard. They accept they are an expendable part of the most ferocious toolset that the US military deploys.

Every service member has a basic life insurance benefit. If I recall correctly, when I was in, it was 250 grand. Don't know if that has changed or not. It will get paid out to the beneficiary the service member chose and listed on their paperwork. If not, the closest next of kin will receive it. As far as I know there is no lifetime payout unless perhaps the member had a retirement benefit the beneficiary may be entitled to. Hope that helps.

[@rustyleann7257]

Nene right you don’t have to go through that to protect our country. That’s why there’s so many different branches of the military. BUT THIS IS THE HIGHEST MOST TRAINED branch.
