I am thinking that using a skull as a military insignia seems a bit unwise after the Nazis used it so much.

I bet someone, somewhere is laughing his head off at passing that Klingon logo as a Seals logo.

First I hear that "Seal Team Six" is just a nickname, now they have an official patch?

I don't care either way, but it seems to me that a truly stealthy organization might forgo a patch in the interests of stealthiness.

"Seal Team Six" is a bit ambiguous a name.

Were Seal Teams One through Five failures?

Did Chanel Numbers One through Four smell putrid?

It's like seeing a boat with the name "Unsinkable II" written on it. It raises questions.

There is Seal Two and Seal Six, according to Richard Marchinko skipping a few numbers gave Soviet intelligence something to do.
