SEALs are special forces, just like the ODSTs.
^This.
Do keep in mind that the Spartan II's are different. They are chosen at a very young age, genetically deemed superior and trained throughout their entire life and augmented like laboratory experiments.
In todays world, if such a thing existed. The ethical nature of this programme would require it private from public eyes. May be deemed as violation of basic Human Rights.
In other worlds, you wouldn't even know they exist.
You could argue no-one knows who the individual identity of Team 6 is, but the truth of the matter is that they are recognized by their branch, the Navy SEALS.
It's commonly known SEALS are selected and have one of the toughest special operations training programs in the world
But that alone does not compare them to Halo's Spartan-II;s.
I think the closest comparison if an augmentation existed would be Spartan-I's.
