Feels good, doesn't?

Make us proud, stay safe, listen and learn.

Well done guys. Take everything the QPs are telling you onboard and remember this, the assessment NEVER stops. You may have finished the selection portion but you will be assessed everyday by every QP until you quit, ETS or retire.

18E, NQP from the 3/20th. I already have native Spanish proficiency, and am wondering whether Russian or Arabic would be more helpful to the Group. I assume it would be Arabic but I would like to make the best-informed decision possible, and would be grateful for any information on the matter.

Go with your strengths, get thru the "Q" course, let SF command decide what's in it's best interests. If I were the sitting CSM, I would send you down range with a team needing an 18E ASAP, and put another soldier in a language class seat that would have been filled by you.

If you can show real language proficiency, why would you want a team to wait for you?

Getting to a team should be your only goal, 25M at a time.

Don't discount any language, all are needed, you'll do fine. If you're good, you'll serve on three to four teams in your career. If really good, you'll be a team dad, if not, that will be self evident.

Group Assignment

Were you told you are going to 5th Grp, or just assuming based off of language?
Don't get your hopes up if its the latter.

Work hard.
