As early as 1959, Naval Beach Group ONE and UDT 12 pushed up the Mekong River to deliver ten landing craft to the armed forces of Laos, which were fighting its communist foes and North Vietnaese forces. This operation took place prior to SEAL involvement in Vietnam.

SEAL Team ONE deployed Chief Petty Officers Robert Sullivan and Charles Raymond to take initial surveys and prepare for training indigenous South Vietnamese in maritime commando tactics, techniques, and procedures.


During this same period, the U.S. Government agreed to increase aid to South Vietnam in the fight against Viet Cong rebels. The agreement included paying for a larger Vietnamese army and more U.S. advisors in the field.

By mid-1968, the SEAL Teams were fielding 12-man platoons, each comprising two squads of six men; most SEAL missions conducted in Vietnam were squad-sized operations. Generally, four or five platoons, at any given time, were deployed to South Vietnam. SEAL platoons were never assigned permanently to Vietnam; instead, they were deployed on temporary duty assignments, usually for a period of about 6 months, with many of the men making several tours.

US NAVY SEAL TEAM 1 In Vietnam

Navy SEALs, supported by riverine patrol boats and swift boat operators, waged guerilla warfare against the enemy in the swamps and jungles of Vietnam. After about six years of heavy involvement in Vietnam, the relatively small group of SEALs accounted for 600 confirmed Viet Cong killed and 300 more almost certainly killed. Numerous others were captured or detained. Trained to rely on each other – their skills, determination in the face of adversity, and “failure is not an option” mantra, the character and reputation of the Navy’s maritime commandos were born.
