SF Bn command (LTC) and SF Group command (COL) are way too far down the road for you to consider right now, but you get the picture.

Like the other QP's are saying, focus on the 25 m target. First you have to prove that you have what it takes to be a member of our Regiment.

Best of luck.
Well that's true . . . there is a career pyramid. but . . . you can see it ALL from the bottom (unlike all other branches). After ODA the slope get wicked steep.
Good advice from BB.
When you take your team enjoy it, because it is fleeting.

But, oh man what a ride!

Speaking as one of those 11 other strong willed cats,...

The worst "big suck fest - bad - shitty day" is SF is still better than any other good day, anywhere else.

That's all I'm going to say about it.

mpower - you do notice you are the only non SF type - other than the original poster - posting in this thread?

This forum is not your playground. Read more post less.

mpower:

You have had plenty of warnings.

You are not a peer here, you are a guest.

If you continue popping up in these threads, you are going to have a new user title, and you may be reading, but you will no longer be posting here.

I will not tell you this again.
