If you are interested in joining and volunteering for Special Forces training and future assignment to a Special Forces Group and A-Team, know this...

The standards that have made U.S. Army Special Forces “Green Berets” the best in the world may be at an all time low but, what happens in school will precede and follow you the rest of your military career.

Things like: honor, integrity, selflessness, candor, and the moral courage to do the right thing when no one else cares...will continue to be what you are judged on.

Anyone perceived to have “skated through” will have a hard time gaining and maintaining the trust that is so important in so many ways at the Team and unit level.

Yes, we cheat, lie and steal but only for the best of reasons, but we don’t like: cheaters, liars, and thieves. You have been warned.

“Do your best” the minimum is never good enough!

ETA: If your reputation is the credit card of life, what’s in your wallet?
