Well its video weeks as the due date for Medal of Honor: Warfighter draws near. As the Medal of Honor Youtube page gets new videos at an increasing pace so far, we've been given several videos to give background information.
The SEAL Team 6 Combat Training videos goes back to 2010s marketing campaign to give background information on the lives of SEALS and what they do and what the subject is about, such as classes.
Each video is narrated by an undercover SEAL Team 6 member who helped the development among the game. His identity is kept secret by distorting his voice and censoring his face.
Sniper[]
The first of the videos, this video begins with an opening scene detailing Medal of Honor: Warfighter in things such as news, TVs and distorted images. Most of the opening is from the Preacher Story Trailer. This opening is longer than the others, as it is the first of the series.
- "SEAL Snipers are universally feared for their innate ability to stalk, target and then peal apart the enemy from extreme distances while in total concealment. Combined with lethality and surgical precision, SEAL Snipers have a devastating and demoralizing effect on those who attempt to engage them."

Point Man[]
The second video, the mysterious SEAL Team 6 member comments on how the Point Man interacts with his squad, the tactical advantage of having them, and the life and role of the duties and actions the Point Men must perform within the operations they perform.
- "The SEAL Point Man exemplifies speed, surprise and violence of action by assuming the inherent danger of placing himself in the first and most exposed position yet mitigates his risk with rapid speed, agility and extreme operational awareness."

Fireteams[]
The SEAL talks about the overall necessity of Teamwork. Fireteams enforce this in Medal of Honor: Warfighter. Communication, being swift, operational awareness, and adaptation, ect. The role of teams in any operation from regular office work to Special Operations is key in not only SEALS, but every other job.
- "The Fireteam epitomizes the Tier 1 Operator by being a significant force multiplier. They consist of two members who act as lookouts and defensive cover on the field of battle. In operation after operation, soldiers organized in Fireteams have proven significantly more effective compared to larger units."

Assaulter[]
Assaulters are normal assigned to new recruits of Tier 1 members. They are in the main action. Use kits necessary for the mission type. They clear the objective, they are the bread and butter of the team.
- "The Assaulter is the ultimate utility role. Able to deliver significant firepower while maintaining high mobility, the Assaulter can slot into one of many roles that range from offensive to defensive."

Demolitions[]
These members of any local fireteam are a huge asset to the entire squad. They do all the mechanical breaching, explosive breaching, carry a variety of useful tools. Although each Assaulter is trained in breaching, anything that they cant breach, the call in the Demo guys.
- "Leveling obstacles in the midst of high pressure scenarios is a skill unique to the SEAL Demolition experts. Heavily armored demolition teams are called in to tactically plant and defuse explosives of every kind while withstanding significant enemy firepower."
