Iran-Iraq War
Somali Intervention
In August 1993 a four man SEAL sniper team was deployed
to Mogadishu to work alongside the Delta Force as part
of Task Force Ranger in the search for Somali
warlord Mohammed Farrah Aidid. They took part in several
operations in support of the CIA and Army culminating in
the 3 October 'Battle of Mogadishu' where they were part
of the ground convoy raiding the Olympic Hotel. All four
SEALs would be later awarded the Silver Star in recognition
of their bravery whilst Navy SEAL Howard E. Wasdin would
be awarded a Purple Heart after continuing to fight despite
being wounded three times during the battle.

Conclusion
The aim of my paper was to give a hint about Navy

every peoples heart because it can be said that these men
are a symbol of perfection.
I truly consider that Navy SEALs represents the ultimate
war fighters from the whole world.
