The last time I was at drill, May '04, there were some support guys (GSC types)who had worked at SFAUC who were going to go thru the course as a composite team during AT. It was a Thank You for some hard work they had done supporting the mission.
Always a chance.

I've been there a few times. I have to say that the support guys are absolutely outstanding... top notch!

SFAUC is an excellent program in the best traditions of SF. And we all know where it started...

Somewhere a True Believer is training to kill you. He is training with minimal food or water, in austere conditions, training day and night. The only thing clean on him is his weapon and he made his web gear. He doesn't worry about what workout to do - his ruck weighs what it weighs, his runs end when the enemy stops chasing him. This True Believer is not concerned about 'how hard it is;' he knows either he wins or dies. He doesn't go home at 17:00, he is home.
He knows only The Cause.
Still want to quit?

SIGDET? Screw the SIGDET. They don't need training or equipment, they get enough of both.
