Does anyone know if the Navy SEALs have ever done training audits on other branches of the military?

SEAL TEAM 6 used to do base protection assessments under the operational name of "Red Cell", commanded by CPT Richard Marcinko.
Unfortunately, they exposed a great deal of vulnerability, and embarrassed many senior officials. Sadly, instead of fixing base protection, they just disbanded Red Cell...

Being that they are a DA force, I don't think they'd really be qualified to audit most of what the Army is trained to do.
Not all SOF does the same thing - most do only a few things, but those few things are almost perfected - hence Special. They sure as hell couldn't tell a single 38B if they were right or wrong unless it was at a range.
They had to go through my Team if they even wanted to enter the country we were in, answer to us, get all personnel action and access through us, etc... So it's not like they're gods and just fly high above the entire military. They have their place. The reason they get what they want and are treated so well by the Navy is because they are dirt cheap compared to anything else the Navy has. 500 new rifles compared to a Tomahawk missile? Yeah, new rifles it is....
