Site score: 4, IMDb score: 2 Overall score: 6
Directed by Carol L. Fleisher
Year: 2014

U.S. Navy SEALs have become a synonym for top notch special forces. Their fame, already well established, skyrocketed after they managed to eliminate Osama Bin Laden. The film deals with their less known exploits which affected the world we live in ways previously unknown to most people. U.S. Navy SEALs (Sea, Air and Land) can trace their origin back to 1942 and a little-known unit called Amphibious Scouts and Raiders. Their task was to infiltrate enemy-held beaches and scout them prior to the main invasion force. One of their founding members was Phil H. Bucklew, later nicknamed Father of Naval Special Warfare. From their first action Operation Torch (Allied landing in North Africa in 1942) to War on Terror, this is Navy Seals: Their Untold Story.
