The Chief of Staff of the Army asked his Sergeant Major, who was both Ranger and Special Forces qualified, which organization he would recommend to form a new anti-terrorist unit. The Sergeant Major responded to the General's question with this parable: If there were a hijacked Boeing 747 being held by terrorists along with its passengers and crew and an anti-terrorist unit formed either by the Rangers or the Special Forces was given a Rescue/Recovery Mission; what would you expect to happen?... Ranger Option.......... Forces/Equipment Committed: If the Rangers went in, they would send a Ranger company of 120 men with standard army issue equipment............ Big Teddy __________________ I believe that SF is a 'calling' - not too different from the calling missionaries I know received. I knew instantly that it was for me, and that I would do all I could to achieve it. Most others I know in SF experienced something similar. If, as you say, you HAVE searched and read, and you do not KNOW if this is the path for you --- it is not.... Zonie Diver SF is a calling and it requires commitment and dedication that the uninitiated will never understand...... Jack Moroney SFA M-2527, Chapter XXXVII

Big Teddy knew that we knew the drill already, just one of his reminders
