German TV mistakenly uses artwork that a Star Trek fan created for a 24th century terrorist group and displayed it in their newscast as the official U.S. Navy SEAL Team Six patch.

(25,704 posts)7. I read something that when Seals were formed they only had two teams
Named one of them Six to make their numbers seem larger.
No idea if it is true.

There is no SEAL Team 6.
Let me put it this way. Why does the news, everytime it talks about the operations of US special forces, attribute their success to Team 6? Why is it never Team 7 or Team 5? There is no Team 6.
