[quote=Anonymous]It’s pretty rare for people who can’t swim to join the Navy. In the rare situation where a non-swimmer does join, they try to get them ip to speed quickly. Same with Marines. The qualifying tests to be considered for special programs (diver, Seal, whatever) are usually not overly difficult. So, while many decently in-shape people can qualify to be considered, you would generally need to be in much better shape to be selected for training & to complete the training. You would be amazed at some of the physical specimens who DON’T make it through the Seal training. In Eric Greitens’ book “The Heart and the Fist” he mentions how a there is not one particular type that makes it through the Seal training, but lots of chiseled workout kings & former college athletes try, & don’t make it.
