Love the PIC of the NOCS operator
I like the sniper one to.


"Gentelemen, you have been selected... not because you are the meanest sons-of-a-bitches in the valley, nor was it for showin' off what a tough guy you are to the gang back on the block... not because you have muscles in your do-do, and not because you have the potential to become some sort of cold-blooded killer who would just as soon blow the eyes out of a baby as step on a bug.

"Your units selected each of you... because you are good Marines - men who are well disciplined... courageous...duty-bound...and loyal to your country and you Corps... in top physical condition, mentally sound and very patient. Each man here... has good moral character and a strong sense of values, among which he holds life sacred.

"When you go on a mission, there is no crowd to applaud you - no one for whom you can flex your muscles or show how tough you are... You have to be strong enough to physically endure lying in the weeds day after day, letting the bugs crawl over you and bite you, letting the sun cook you and the rain boil you, ****ting and pissing in your pants... because you know that Charlie's coming, and you're gonna kill him."

If you're interested there are a bunch of outstanding photos of COMSUBIN operators at the official Italian Marina Militare site.

The Italian government has been very supportive of the war on terror.

Italian forces have been deployed in Afghanistan for awhile now. The Alpini and Army SF 'Col Moschin' are there and, rumor has it, at least one COMSUBIN operator was 'feet dry'.

They will also be deploying to Iraq as a part of the stabilization force.
