I guess I'm lucky ,I never served in a SF capacity other than in an SF Group....... Can't imagine what it would be like if an NCO(not SF) would be screwing with me because I wore a green beret. I think I would do what I've read as a response from BMT and "punch him in the neck"........

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....
