I had no idea what it meant either. I think you're going to have seriously consider changing it, because that's several people, from more than one country, who've said "huh?"
It's a reference to the US Navy SEALs, a smugly elite special force who are reputed to eschew underwear -- whether for practical reasons in the field, or simply to prove they're extremly macho and so tough they can wear canvas next to their private bits without chafing, I am not certain. Nor do I know whether similar groups in other countries favor undies or not. Perhaps some of our British members could try pantsing a few SAS types to find out?
In any case, yes, it's a USAn phrase.
