Ok, since noone is doing searches on militaryphotos.net, here is what i dug out...

Caption for the images:

U.S. Special Operations Forces (Navy SEALs) gear up for an evening mission in western Iraq. The mission resulted in the detainment of two suspected insurgents from an al-Qaida cell believed to be responsible for planning improvised explosive device attacks, smuggling weapons and facilitating foreign fighters. (U.S. Navy photo/Mass Communication Specialist 2nd Class Eli J. Medellin)

Dev mean fat in Japanese.
So he is a member of Fat Group.
He got sense of humor.
:rolling :rolling :rolling

Tetsu-さんは面白い人だいよ!

Joining the sculpt discussion, I think it's a great sculpt, but IMHO, it just doesn't strike me as particularly SEAL-like. More of a PMC feel.

Nice, I need to figure out how to make a cummerbund like that for my spartans.
Hi Akira, that work by your friend Tetsu still amuses me to this day. Looks just like Hidehiko! :lol

I'll admit I don't know everything military but why is a SEAL wearing ACU?
I maybe the only that doesn't like the head sculpt.
On specific operations, SEALs were providing sniper and other support to Army units in Ramadi for instance and they wore ACUs to blend in with the Army Soldiers. The pics became quite popular in 1/6 discussions and it looks like ACE is trying to cash in on a figure from such an operation. An M14 EBR would take this figure over the top for me!! I love ACE weapons!

Huy,

If ACE would have tried to cash in those pictures, they would have made Maritime CIRAS - just like those guys on picture. They could have made two figures with almost the same gear and people would still be happy - at least I know I would have been...

We most likely will see an M4 with this figure. At least those Molle Pouches on LBT vest look to thin to accept M14 ammo magazines. Or maybe another version of their SPR. Hey if we are lucky, maybe we will get Seal Sniper Rifle (whatever its designation is, never saw it - always referred as Seal Sniper Rifle). M110 would have been cool too. Arghhhh, time to stop dreaming, I'm almost 100% we will get an M4...

Ohh an yes, I'm too tired of TASC headset by now. Maybe we will get Peltors this time around?:) Comon ACE, now that you have replaced that radio with good PRC-148, any chance we can get a new headset? If not, at least Stinger headset instead of the TASC...

Alexei
