Some of the most toughest surest, looking guys crap out, while walter middy

A number of my friends are SEALs. If you see them swimming or climbing walls,
it's pretty clear that they're in better shape than an average desk pilot like
myself; however, it's not so much that it would show while they're in street
clothes. They're mostly average looking guys, mild mannered, who happen to
have a job they can't talk a lot about. The one characteristic they do seem to
have is extraordinarily high determination to set and accomplish their goals.
