	Seabee History: Vietnam
		During the summer of 1956, a team from a Seabee construction battalion was sent to the newly- established Republic of Vietnam to conduct a survey of some 1,800 miles of existing and proposed roads.
		When the Seabees returned almost ten years later, these results helped them build many of the roads that were then crucial to the conduct of the war.
		Although Seabee Teams had been active in the Republic of Vietnam since 1963, it was not until 1965 that larger Seabee units were deployed to aid in the Vietnamese struggle.

	Seabee History: World War II
		With authorization to establish construction battalions at hand and the question of who was to command the Seabees settled, the Bureau of Yards and Docks was confronted with the problem of recruiting, enlisting, and training Seabees, and then organizing the battalions and logistically supporting them in their operations.
		Thus, the Seabees were instrumental in spelling the beginning of the end for the southern stronghold of the Axis.
		While the Seabees in the South and Southwest Pacific were hacking their way through vermin-infested jungles toward the Philippines, their comrades to the north were striking across the Central Pacific island chains straight at the heart of the Japanese Empire.

	What is a Seabee?
		Seabees come in assorted sizes, shapes and weights, but all have the same code: to enjoy every second of every hour of every day, whether at work or at play, and to protest by griping (their most beloved privilege) when issued an order.
		Seabees are found everywhere: on top of, inside of, climbing on, swinging from, running around, or more likely than not, turning to.
		A Seabee is a man of magical abilities: he can weld, build, drive, repair and fight, he can wreck or he can beautify, he can make something out of nothing; work never fazes him nor does he seem to tire of it.

	Seabee team
		The standard composition of a Seabee team is one CEC officer and 12 petty officers; however, when necessary, the standard personnel allowance can be increased to allow the undertaking of a specific deployment task.
		Although Seabee team allowances are normally associated with an NMCB, the responsibility for the operation of the team in a foreign country lies with the appropriate United States and host country agencies.
		Seabee teams also provide medical and dental care to the local villagers and conduct on-the-job training and classroom instruction for host country workmen.

	All Wood Wings: Republic RC-3 Seabee Model
		One of the few amphibious light aircraft to be produced in large numbers, the Republic Seabee was built by the same company that created the legendary P-47 Thunderbolt fighter aircraft of World War II.

		Seabee RC-3 production began in mid 1946 but lasted only until October 1947 when, ironically, Republic decided to concentrate on its once more lucrative military business despite healthy Seabee sales.

		Life for the Navy Seabees of Construction Battalion Unit (CBU) 410 aboard NAS Jacksonville might not be that exciting, but they nonetheless perform a wide variety of tasks in support of warfighter readiness that are essential to the Navy's operations.

		Many times, the Seabees work alongside Marine Expeditionary Units and other combat units, and need to be as proficient in defensive combat as they are with their construction skills.

		A year ago I wrote an essay "Seabees -- Special Forces?" The aim of this new piece is to remove that question mark forever.
		The work Seabees performed in the Pacific island-hopping campaign, clearing beach obstacles while under vicious enemy fire, led to the organization of dedicated Underwater Demolition Teams (UDTs), from which, in turn, in the early '60s -- as Vietnam was heating up -- were born the U.S. Navy SEALs.
