The current definition looks like a compound of maybe three, German speaker want to sort it out? - [The]DaveRoss 20:23, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
- I'd just remove the added definitions (see version history). They look nonsense to me. -- Prince Kassad 20:29, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
- Even Mutante's original definition included "frogman, scuba diver, combat diver, combat swimmer", and while the first is a synonym for the third and closely related to the fourth, the second is troublesome. Does this mean any kind of scuba diver or only a combat scuba diver? Is it restricted to combat divers who use SCUBA? Are combat snorklers OK? Seems like it is the German version of SEAL but I can't make that assumption. - [The]DaveRoss 20:34, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
- They're soldiers trained for combat in and under water, today counted among special forces. - -sche 02:21, 10 March 2011 (UTC)
