24-7:

You are coming across as argumentative and lazy or lacking in motivation. That thread should have taken you only moments to find, especially for someone who has been here for weeks. Aren't you supposed to be an Intel soldier?

If you wait to try, you may be injured or unable to hack it by the time you do. Put in your packet, and if you get selected, reenlist and be done with it. If not, do as you wish. You will not get anywhere sitting around and wondering.

I have to be concerned by a potential soldier who would solicit info or advice from someone on the internet he does not even know, but is afraid to visit the SF recruiter, who will guarantee his answer and put it in writing. It will not cost you anything to ask him, and it is his job to give you the right answer.

Be man enough to cowboy up and find out. Do it, or quit talking about it.
