I don't know about in the US but here in the UK every 2nd diver (generally the ones who have no buoyancy control, 30lpm RMV's and can't put on their fins unassisted) lays claim to having been in an elite regiment at some point or other.

- had to laugh 'cos it used to be the same offshore on rigs in the north Sea. Every other roustabout, roughneck or service hand claimed the same heritage. But odd really.. none ever seemed to know each other!!

However, the one guy who I happened to know actually had that background was quiet, reserved and never mentioned it....
