SEAL 6 has come to an end this year with no casualties reported

The SEAL course was started in 2001 after the experience gained by Egyptian personnel over multiple years in the US Navy BUD/S course. The course which is almost the same as that of the US occurs every year, all Officers and Non-Commissioned Officers serving in the armed forces may apply. Conscripts and Pvt.s may be selected in extraordinary circumstances. This course is usually a precursor to joining 'tier one' Egyptian Special Forces units.

Only for training

I have no idea why, its not like there's a lack of helmets or anything. Although the entire army is being reequipped.

There is a good article on the EAF and the African Air Forces by the AFM magazine of this month.
