Frogmen, originally used to describe naval combat divers during World War II, evolved into the SEALs (Sea, Air, and Land teams) with the establishment of the U.S. Navy SEALs in 1962. The transition reflected a need for specialized forces capable of conducting unconventional warfare across various environments. The term "frogman" persisted informally, but the formal designation of SEALs represented a more structured and comprehensive approach to special operations.

Did President Kennedy offered to send military advisors to Korea during the Korean Conflict?

No. President Kennedy sent advisors to South Vietnam, not Korea. Vietnam was the slow-growing cancer that allowed advisers to become involved. JFK sent the SEALS and Green Berets to Southeast Asia (Vietnam). JFK authorized the "Green Beret" for the US Special Forces. The SEALS were converted UDT men (Under Water Demolition men, aka Frogmen); they too were converted to SEALS on JFK's watch.
