Perenchio has noted that her motivation to document the service of Navy SEALs was based on a conversation she had at a dinner party with Vice Admiral Robert S. Harward . After discussing his service , she has asked frankly out of interest , " How do you kill someone in the morning and then go home and play with your wife and children ? " The two continued to stay in touch and after the September 11 attacks , Perenchio contacted Harward about the project , where he allowed her and Walton access . The project was originally called " A Day in the Life of a SEAL . " She has also done documentary work examining endangered animals on the African continent , and evaluating the impact of wartime on women and children living in Afghanistan
