The items listed by NDD, in part, were listed to me by my Stu Co TAC. We were told what to expect from being on a team, what we could expect, and what the team would expect of us. There are some really good instructors in SWTG(A) who take their job seriously and try to instill some of the values listed here in their Candidates; it is unfortunate mare arent taking what they have to say seriously. And despite this, there are still those who are looking for badges, tabs, and wanting the cool schools/assignments as soon as they get to Group.

A couple of us here know of a young SGT who showed up in the Gp SGM's office and proceeded to tell him he wanted to either go to a Scuba team or the Advanced CQB team and had no desire to serve anywhere else. He got neither and is now a SF Tabbed team leader in the 82nd.
