BUD/S however it was a long time ago...but I've always kept up with my handgun and other skills....I'm almost to the point of being too old to fight and I'll just have to kill you, age.....
I ran your name by people who can check records and tell us if you were ever a SEAL. This is what I got.
"No Jim Garn ever attended BUDS training. Therefore not a SEAL."
