All of this competition will lead to many discussions, rather about which one is better or who is the best. Like child argue about which superhero they favorite are the best, in this discussion we discussed about a more realistic superhero. Navy Seal and Green Berets are super heroes like because of what they are capable of doing, and the things they do. Navy Seal and Green Berets were both approved by President John K.

    The history of the United States Navy Sea, Air and Land (SEAL) teams dates back to the World War II and the creation of the Navy’s Scout and Raider and later named Underwater Demolition Teams (UDT). Formed in 1942, these teams were elite warriors tasked with going in behind enemy lines before a major assault force landed and systematically weakening the enemy’s defenses along the beachheads that the primary occupation force would later breach. The most famous of these missions is arguably the selfless work performed by…

    A lot of young adults join the military for selfish reason such as, the need to pay for college, the desire to carry a weapon, or even to shoot another person. Coach Teifer joined the military simply because he wanted to serve the best country in the world. Waiting for the girls getting out of their seven o’clock practice, to pass by the small classroom we were in, I then questioned Coach Teifer as to why the Navy SEALS is such an elite group. “Because it’s the only group that has to train. The name SEAL stands for Sea, Air, and Land. So you have to learn to operate in water. Jumping out of planes, and landing. So it combines every kind of terrain there is.” This Navy Seal program he was in, started with 108 people and graduated only 12 people.…

    The Naval ROTC program is among the most elite programs in the United States. However, when an average American citizen depicts the United States greatest military moments, they picture the iconic moment of United States marines holding up the American flag at Iwo Jima. The USMC is the ideal fighting force that has been prominent around the globe. Surprisingly, they also share the Naval ROTC program with the United States Navy. Why is it that the US Navy lacks the same picture and title as the USMC? The United States Navy is putting out a great number of officers per year. Without an officer candidate school (OCS) or basic school to screen navy officers the military branch is exposing itself to diminishing physical standards, lack of strive…

    Superheroes know the difference between right and wrong. The whole point of having a superhero is because there is a villain to face, an adversity. There can be no good without evil. If there is nothing to fight for, nobody will reach a new potential to fight for it. Whenever a villain is attempting to impose a reign of terror amongst a population, the superhero steps in and gives it his all to ensure the safety of the people. They are constantly proving who they are and what they stand for. If superheroes were real, they would be a definite figure to look up to considering how much adversity steps in their path, and how they show no fear and they would give their lives for the sake of people. If you think about it, what made them want to be a hero in the first place? There had to be some form of evil, some adversity, which made them want to be the ones to save everyone else. Super villains further prove this point because they also have great power, do they not? Who knows what set them off wanting power and destruction, but something we aware of is that their adversities are our heroes. Our heroes stand in their way, so the villains are constantly coming back for more, always trying to prove themselves superior. Their characters, their entities, always build off of each other. For heroes and…

    The four seals that are tasked with this mission are as followed Marcus Luttrell, Lt. Michael Murphy, Sonar Tech Matthew Axelson, and Danny Dietz. The night of June 2005 the groups of them were camping out overlooking the village when they came across 3 shepherds and a boy. Fearing that they would be spotted and ratted out by the shepherds the group captured them. After debating for a long time whether or not to kill them or let them go the team decided that they would let the shepherds go and move on to another part to continue on the mission. And hour later the seals were surrounded by hundreds of members of the Taliban warriors up on a mountain. There surrounded in a heated gun battle with the Taliban warriors with nowhere to go atop the mountain top with their backs against the wall and running out of space to operate, Marcus yelled out to the group to fall back, meaning telling them to jump off the cliff of the mountain so that they could at least get away from the Taliban’s to regroup and call for back up and get a better chance at fighting them. Already down to just three of them and badly wounded Marcus and Matthew being shot in the head but still out there in the fight, while Lt. Murphy was out trying to find a way…

    Hero vs Villian

    • 321 Words
    • 2 Pages

    The Punisher, Robin Hood, Batman, and Superman are some of the characters that we stereotypically constitute as heroes. They are known to fight with courage without fear of death. They destroy the enemy within a blink of an eye. They fight using their own body strength, superpower, or some kind of weapon. They come to the rescue miraculously and leave without a trace. They are mysterious. We are unable to identify who they are underneath the masks and disguises. Yet, we praise them and ignore the real heroes that surround us regularly, ordinarily. “All of us …like to believe that in a moral emergency we will behave like the heroes of our youth, bravely and forthrightly, without thought of personal loss or discredit”. In other words, we are quite oblivious to the ordinary people of the world that are, in fact, the true heroes.…
