You are coming across as very immature, lacking education, and unsure of yourself. Read your own profile and post. Look in the upper right corner of this page. See the words, "Quiet Professional"? Do your own words strike you as something written by a man who wants to be a quiet professional? Or some kind of tacky, drug abusing, self-effacing, wannabe rock star?
Talk is cheap, my grandmother wants a green beret. You have done nothing yet to prepare yourself and have taken no significant step on your journey. Getting the contract is no real feat. Completing your part of it is.
The attributes you are displaying so far are not wanted in SF, hence our decision to discontinue taking younger, less educated enlistees into SF. They just were not what we were looking for, and were wasting too much training time trying to get them to wise up. Many of them may eventually make it into SF, after a few years in an infantry unit.
I highly recommend that you follow NDD's instructions, consider the way you are presenting yourself, and get your stuff together before you move any further down the road, to include more posts here. He is a medic and as such, is a much nicer guy than I am. And he knows things, trust me.
Have a very SF Day.
