Special Operations Recruiting Battalion, New web page.
SORB has a new web page that is impressive. Lots of information for anyone that wants to get into the game.
http://www.bragg.army.mil/sorb/default.htm
And the Special Forces sub-page..
http://www.bragg.army.mil/sorb/default.htm
A couple weeks ago they even added Selected Training Videos, with e-book access. Very net-centric.
http://www.bragg.army.mil/sorb/Sorb_Videos.html
Might be something to add to your favorites list as a reference..

Am I missing something here or are they really aggressively promoting Special Forces?  Looks to me like they are going full blown to get guys to enlist for SF.....  I can't remember at anytime when SF was such a high priority to get guys for enlisting......

Nice layout but the website needs some work. Many pages stretch beyond the left and right borders making it a real pain to view on IE and FireFox. At least that's what I'm getting. Is anyone else getting the same results?

Same..
My 23 inch display is set to 1600x900, and I need about 15 inch to drop the slider bars. I would guess they are using 13x9 aspect ratio, following the FCC ruling for hi-def,, even if they aren't a TV station..??

It just need a little attention to detail . . . well, maybe a lot of attention to details. Overall, the thought process is good, execution leaves a little to be desired.
But there are a lot of answers on those pages to questions that repeatedly crop up here.

Noticed they ran the MOSs by letter
18A, 180A, 18B, 18C, 18d, 18E, 18F and way, way down at the bottom 18Z.
Not to be picky or anything but..............

They just saved the best for last....... 
What's up with the "d" in 18d? they didn't rate a big letter? or are you still having those nightmares and counting goats in your sleep?

It was that Svengali mind meld job that those darn medics do. Start thinking anything 18D and them little boggers pop into your mind and start twisting things around.
Must be all that practice they got at Ft Sam.
