I have no military experience, college graduate in bio and chem. Then went to grad school (Chiropractic) of which I just completed.
I have been trying to “outgrow” my adventuresome side and leave the dream of a spell in the military behind me but alas that has failed miserably. Matter of fact as time gets closer to losing the option (I’m thirty) it gets harder to pull away from.
So I’ve been perusing over my options for the best place to be. I would love to attempt something as hard as SF. I have a background in Muay Thai and Submission wrestling and have been a fitness nut my entire life. I love this website and SOCNET. Thanks for having a place like this for us whana bee’s to check out.

Filled in some of the blanks.
SW is nothing more then Brazilian Jujitsu with no pajamas on.
Thanks for the warm invite I look forward to further learning.

I hope you don't do that in a mud filled pool.

Great Site
Its been quite a few years since I served in SF and let me tell you I miss the professionals that I served with back then. Fortunately I have found this board and look forward to contributing as well as connecting with long lost freinds.

Gentlemen, first of all thank you for this forum, it is an invaluable resource. I’ve been lurking for awhile and have learned a great deal. The amount of knowledge shared here is fantastic and I am extremely grateful for the time and energy that has gone into posting it.
My name is Morgan, I’m 21 and currently a college student (undergrad Psych. Major). I’m currently licensed as an EMT, although not working in the field. I’m also a blacksmith and a knife-maker.
I took a year off from school (between end of summer semester ’05 and start of fall semester ’06) because of some family health issues, and ended up spending most of that time in deep thought about what I really want out of my life, and what I want to accomplish. The end decision was that, while pursuing my interests in psychology and neuroscience academically is very important, I’ve been chasing the edges of something since I was a teenager that if I don’t follow through with, I wont be living the life I really want. To that end, after I complete my B.S. (Bachelor of Science, not the other… as much as it seems like it sometimes), I plan on enlisting. Right now, I am focusing on school (have a bit more to go, only a sophomore) and my physical conditioning primarily.
I have learned a lot reading here, and found direction in furthering my learning about what I want to do, and preparing for it. I don’t think I’ll have too much to say, just keep on reading, but I figured it was time to introduce myself and say thank you.

Good morning. My name is Dawn and my friend Goggles Pizano directed me to your sight some time ago. Lurking was enjoyable but I missed out on a great deal of information, so now I'm registered. Even though my work does not compare to combat medicine, I have found medical discussions fascinating and look forward to reading more! Thanks for the opportunity to join you. Dawn

Hello
Hello, my name is Matt. I am 23 years old and a 96B. Right now I am trying to get an assisgnment in support of SF. I've been reading many of the threads here for a month or so and I thought I should introduce myself. I've read a lot of good information here and appreciate the information all of the QP's have put out there for myself and others like me that have aspirations of becoming SF soldiers.
Thank you for all you have done.

Welcome aboard Sir.
I never personally met COL Rowe but he is the man for whom I worked the hardest when I started down this path of work.
