I bought Seal Team in the summer of 1993 when I was on vacation from school and had nothing better to do than chase Charlie around all day. I remember that to get it to work was a pain in the ass...I had run HIMEM and MEMMAKER and all sorts of programs just to free up the memory to get it to run.

When it did though, I was shocked...it was far more realistic than I had expected. I didn't quite grasp the "stealth" concept, so I'd always wonder what was wrong with me when I went dashing straight at the enemy and found myself getting killed each time.

I remember this was also the first game I had where I wasn't alone...I could call in airstrikes (a Huey with a door gunner, as I recall) if I got in deep trouble, though sometimes the Hueys would kill me instead.

I've had too many problems with DOSBOX to have the energy to try it again, but hopefully one day there will be another way for Seal Team to work on my computer. Those were good days back then, even if the "jungle" had hardly a tree in sight.
