False advertising

False advertising on the Military channel.

'Secrets of Seal Team Six'. Yeah, right.

While a person watching the show may learn a few things he didn't know about the Special Warfare people, you can bet your boots you are not going to get privvie to any classified information on the tube.

Then again, you might. The Navy has made a few mistakes over the years.
The Russians got all kinds of information about our nuclears subs just by purchasing a Revell model kit. There are a number of stories of scouts getting into reactor rooms while on tours given by the Navy. My favorite is the one where a guard refused an admiral admittance to a reactor room by sticking his rifle against the admiral's nose while at the same time a troop of scouts was checking the reactor room out.

I would have loved to see the look of outrage on the admiral's face.
As a former enlisted man I find it amusing seeing a flag officer having a rifle stuffed in his face, but this is one instance that even makes ME think 'WTF?!".
