 Alright I don't know how many of you watched this or even know what it is, but about a year ago this show came on USA called Combat Missions.  Great show...did a lot of military stuff, was hosted by beloved Survivor Rudy (The SEAL...yes), etc etc.  Anyway, I came across this the other day that apparently one of the guys on that show that was playing the game was killed in an ambush in Iraq.  He was kind of an ass on the show but he was still really hardcore so I thought I'd atleast say something for any of you who actually did watch the show.

Heres the article I came across:

Take care all.  Chillin the most

I watched the show, and I loved watching Scott on the show because he really brought an "I'm not going to take any shit from anyone. You have a problem with me, deal with it" kind of attitude that I wished some of the other guys on the show had, as well.

My condolences go out to his family, friends, and fellow soldiers.

You have a reality game show called 'Combat Missions'? what is that? some kind of reality war game??

Yeah man, it came about 2 months after 9/11 I think.  It was pretty hot even tho they only did one season of it.  They got a bunch of guys from SEALs, Delta Force, Marine Force Recon, SWAT, Rangers, Green Berets and all that and put them on four different teams.  Then they did a bunch of different things.  Obstacle courses, shooting range, and all this other stuff you'd normally find at boot camp (only more amped up).  Then at the end of the episode two of the teams would try a scenario.  They did it with Miles Lazer Gear (Yeah like lazer tag, only better) so it was their team against the "tangos" who were just random baddies who had the same gear on...and they'd "rescue pilots" or "take out convoys" and other things like that.  It was was pretty cool...I wish they'd put it back on.

That show kicked ass. I miss it too.

As with Scott, its sad that he had to go that way being drug through the city like some of the Rangers in Somalia, and hung from a bridge.   A phrase of mine that fits the article, "Never doubt a S.E.A.L."
