I was on the Military.com Special Operations Center reading up on Army Special Forces and Rangers, and Navy SEALs and I saw a few pictures, and a couple of SF and Seal pictures the soldier was holding what looked like to me an M-14...not the updated sniper friendly version either, I'm talking the ones at the end of WW2 and trained with in Vietnam era boot camp. I heard they were highly accurate, but surely something new would be better?

I have served seven years in the marine corps and know what recruiters can say. I want to know how hard the flight school is and the percentage rate of passing. I also want to know how hard the Aviation Selection Test Battery is and the percentage rate on that as well. I am not worried about the physicall aspect of the training. If you have any knowledge or have gone to this training before please let me know your experiences.

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine as children do. It's not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let our own lights shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others. "

My son just graduated from Navy Boot camp. He is not being shipped out because he tried to commit suicide a few years back The recruiter said don't volunteer anything and signed him up for 8 years. my son told of this at boot camp and is now being held back from Nuclear School. Understandable. But is he now obligated to serve 8 years with no school if that is what the navy offers? It seems to me the recruiter just wanted to sign him up for as many years as possible? My son wants to be in the Navy but he also wants some kind of school. Does the navy have to abide to their side of the contract?

I'm in the process of finishing my waiver stuff and my recruiter thinks he can have me "in" next week, so I have to go back to MEPS and sign my contract. I have a GED and a drug waiver from when I was 17. Would I still be eligible to even attend Ranger school? No one seems to think I will have any problem getting Airborne as I am in perfect health and scored 81 on my ASVAB. I am going for 11B as my mos.

Thanks for any info.

I heard from my brother mentioned that a trained Recon have an option to join BUD program, which I presume to be a school for the Seals. On the other hand, a Seal doesn't require to go to whatever school the Recon go. It sounds that a Recon doesn't have full training while a Seal could do everything a Recon could do. It sounds almost as if Recon is just more of fodder for the Seal. Stealthfully scout out the perimeter and identify the threat but try not to engage in any battle and report back with info. Mission accomplish. Wow what an intense, afrenaline pumping mission! I know I'm been sarcastic. No offense to those who are member of the Recon.
