When you have the Navy SEALs on your side, nothing is insurmountable. At least, that's the impression Bostonians walked away with ever since they parachuted into Boston Common last week. Since then, the storied military unit has landed in Fenway Park for last week's Red Sox-Yankee game and participated in a few meet and greets with locals and handful of kids as part of Navy Week.

The raining of SEALs did not go unnoticed by Boston's Twitter populace either, as the social network exploded with sightings--and euphoria--as the SEALs injected levity into what was shaping to be a hot, muggy July. According to OhMyGov Analytics, over 6,000 twitter mentions were recorded about the storied military unit --many expressing awe at the SEALs dropping in on Fenway Park ahead of last Friday's game.

"Wow!" @at1183 tweeted July 6. "Navy Seals just parachuted into #Fenway! Awesome!"

"Pregame very cool," @annsaxtonmurphy wrote. "Navy SEALs parachuting into @fenwaypark prior to Yankees game."

The SEALs drop in on Boston Common may be good public relations, but it's also comes as the military unit goes on a recruiting spree ahead of anticipated engagements of the Near East and Syria.  According to World Net Daily, the Navy SEALs are currently recruiting Americans of Iranian, Pakistani and other descent to support ongoing operations in the Middle East and elsewhere--including language translation, cross-cultural communications, and other skills that have always been the hallmark of counter-intelligence training, but which are especially prized as the War on Terror expands to the Near East, Africa and other locales.

For those who can't (or won't) go for guts and glory, the view from afar is very beautiful indeed--especially in San Diego.

"So thankful we have Navy SEALs," @opendoorlifecoa tweeted July 6. "even more thankful that's not my calling.  In San Diego, these guys are studs."

With Naval Amphibious Base Coronado --SEAL territory--nearby, merely suggesting one is a SEAL has been a ticket to more than just free drinks, spawning imitators, and creating headaches for real-life special operators. Yet with young women tweeting comments like 'Navy SEALs are freaking hot', it's a little understandable that insecure young men would impersonate them in hopes of more than a few nothings whispered in their ears.

The rest of us, though, are content merely to shake our heads in awe in the presence of these modern Spartans.

"Our Navy Seals are by far the baddest alive!" @SeanStreeter1 tweeted after the SEALs departed Boston.

We couldn't agree more.
