2013 TRAINING COURSE DATES SEAL Adventure Dates Extreme SEAL Experience There are other camps available for people who want that sort of experience.
This thread is beginning to remind me of the debates that occurred in the 1980s with training offered and advertised through Soldier of Fortune. I recall a segment on 60 minutes about it. I don't think anyone ever confused that with training at say, Ft. Benning, GA
The Space Camp is a good analogy; Gleasons gym in New York runs a boxing fantasy training camp in the Adirondacks during the summer. Contact is optional as I recall.
Junior Lifeguards do much the same thing for aquatic lifesavers at beaches all over the country. The Aussies turn it into a serious national past time with their surflifesaving clubs. And the members of those clubs I met down there were astounded that all our beach lifeguards in the US were paid and not volunteers (its a combination of both at many beaches in OZ apparently, I am still trying to get my arms around the concept).
When I was in Australlia, I recall checking into a specialty that involved heliocasting into the water in full scuba, descending, and coming back on a "go-fast boat." It looked like a hoot, but it was just a little too expensive for me, especially given the exchange rate.

Reality is sometimes stranger that fiction.
