Signing Up for SF

I am looking for any information or advice y'all can offer me in regards to joining the Special Forces. I am a college graduate from Texas A&M University. I am 2 years out and it seems as though life just isn't fulfilling at this point. I feel as though I will make a difference in someone's life by joining. I have researched the SF as well as other armed forces branches, but I am always drawn back to SF. I am not in the peak physical shape I was in while playing rugby throughout college, but can be in a relatively short period of time. What questions or comments should I approach a recruiter with? What information do you have to offer? Anything is considered extremely helpful. I have set a goal of December as my make it or break it point.

Thanks.

Thumper-
Repost this in the introductions thread. Read all the stickies. The QPs here are professionals and expect the same from guests - especially those that are expressing an interest in joining their ranks.

The moderators WILL blast you if you catch a case of the nuclear dumb ass, situational awareness is the key.

Follow the rules (posted on the intro page) and you might scoot by with only grazing fire, this time.

Following in your footsteps brother, that's all. I wouldn't want to be him if he screws up again.... but he did follow instructions. It's a -10, not a lot of room left.
