Contractors? Really? Use the seals as they should be used to protect your ships, like the Uk does in the gulf with the RM.

@justlee596 Same question again Why spend stupid mopney on contractors when thiss is what the RM, and USMC are basically for in the first place. Get rid of private contractors in the field, and replace them with troops the bonus is you get 24 hour cover, and guess what? No private security companies DOES actually mean a larger armed forces. The armed forces are there not to make a profit, comapre US health don't care with the NHS. That is simply the very best exmple I can give you. Or why the USA has socialised fire services just like the rest of the world, Private companioes are taking larger and larger slices from the military budget, as well as from other budgets, linked to the armed forces. Finally I do have a very good friend who is now in a private company working civilian ships off the gulf of Aden and in the arabian sea. He gets paid around 3 times what he recieved in the RM. For this he is expected to do far less, and spends most of his time on the decks sun bathing.
