"A U.S. Marine explains maritime-based counter-terrorism techniques to members of the Yemeni Special Operations Forces as the carry a Combat Rubber Reconnaissance Craft down the beach."

The Marine in the picture to the far left is with Batallion Reconnaissance.
Sorry about the size of the picture, the low resolution version was too small.

Although looks are certainly not everything, I was waiting for a comment on their strength which looks equivalent to that of a moth.

What picture are you talking about, I see nothing.
Oh, maybe it's a stealth pic.

So what if they're skinny, size doesn't equal strength, besides I bet they're brilliant runners :D

It should be noted that SAS members tend to be on the skinnier side cos of all the running, muscle-men just can't cut it.

Never underestimate anyone because you do not know what training they have received. I think 16 Obr Spn pointed out that there were members in Russian SF that looked like computer geeks. So looks aren't everything.

It's not about being a muscle man.. but if you look at the body of someone in the military who's been training in combat arms for a while.. his body has developed. The Marine on the left is a good example. I've seen Pakastani SF who are musculer because of military training. they are more bulky then the non-military types.. these guys in this picture look more like they just started military training... not the training pro... I myself was very thin in the Army but my legs, sholders and chest are developed, from doing normal PT, and the job of being an Infantryman...
