This might be your goal, but before you advertise it too strongly let me tell a couple of things.
First it isn't like any other speciality. You do not geta promise that you will even be given consideration. You do not get a "get out of jail free" card if you don't make it.
All of the people I've known in the advanced warrior groups have something either very special, or very wrong with them. Either way they will lay it all on the line for the guy next to them.
Even in the early weeks of training you will come up with thousands of reasons to ring out, I am not sure that I can give you one good solid one for staying and fighting one more day. If you can imagine the absolute hardest day of your life, that would be your first minute of camp, your first day feels like it is at least two weeks long. Then it only gets worse from there.
Why? Only a person who has done it can ever feel the reward. Maybe only a few people even know about what you did that, but those are the only people in the world that count.
If you want it---try it. There is absolutely no shame if you don't make it,,,,,and the world if you do.

all you have is army special forces or Navy seals so i am guessing you are looking to go into the army as a special force heres some info on s.forces
Special Forces Teams are among the most specialized combat forces in the Army. They experience rigorous mental and physical training in order to carry out their missions in a quick and extremely effective manner. Special Forces candidates are guaranteed the opportunity to "try out" for Special Forces. It does not guarantee that the recruit will be accepted into the Special Forces program. It only guarantees that the recruit will be given the opportunity to see if he has what it takes to become a member of one of the most highly-skilled, combat ready forces in the world.There are four entry-level Special Forces Military Occupational Specialties. The decision of which specialty you will be trained in is based on your background, aptitude, desire and the needs of the Army:
*Special Forces Weapons Sergeants are the weapons specialists and tacticians. They're capable of operating and maintaining a wide variety of U.S., Allied, and other foreign light and heavy infantry weapons, and in infantry tactics.
*Special Forces Engineer Sergeants are specialists across a wide range of disciplines; from demolitions and constructions of field fortifications, to topographic survey techniques.
*Special Forces Medical Sergeants are considered to be the finest first-response/trauma medical technicians in the world.
*Special Forces Communications Sergeants can operate every kind of communications gear, from encrypted satellite communications systems to UHF and VFH systems.
Their missions often require rapid and discrete responses to unique situations throughout the world. As the Global Scouts for the US military, Special Forces_ ubiquitous presence generally guarantees that SF is the first on the ground or already at a crisis location as trouble emerges. For this reason they are experts in unilateral direct action operations and unconventional warfare, as well as having thorough knowledge of foreign languages, customs and cultures. In addition, they are masters of training and organizing insurgents, surrogate fighters, indigenous forces and foreign militaries in support of US national objectives.
I hope this can help good luck, and good luck making it in.
