Congrats all.

Does your uniform still say USMC?

I thought that you left the Corps, joined the Army, and were selected by Army cadre to be trained as an Army Special Forces NCO?

Ramrugby09 06-29-2009 15:24

You are correct Sir I am now in the Army and am proud to have been selected by the best there is, but a small part of me will always be a Marine!

ironstoNe 07-12-2009 23:27

Selected. Class 09-09. Delta and Persian-Farsi. This will definitely be a fun ride.

p.s. The second time around was much more fun in that June heat.. a big thanks to everyone on this site that gave their support and advice. Don't worry, I'll repay you when I receive that tab.. 25m targets for the next 2 years here I come!

Hey good job with the easy part keep your head down and keep walking. I just finished the Q course just a heads up admin is a pain, keep track of every date and even though the finish line isn't in sight make sure all is squared away before you get there or its a world of hurt. i thought i was good but its the little things like jump dates that will get you. good luck

It will be taken care of for you...

While you are waiting read/reread the email you received when you registered. It appears you missed a step or two...

Congrats and welcome to PS.com

Congrats all! And double congrats to a particularly and well-deserved PROUD PARENT!

Your parenting has paid off. Thanks for supporting another trooper joining our ranks.

Defender968 11-22-2009 17:18

Selected 02-10 Spanish,

Warrior Mentor thank you for your book Sir, I picked it up a few years ago out of curiosity, I had always had an interest in SF, reading Get Selected answered many of my questions and in doing so it really motivated me to start doing more research to answer the rest of my questions. After all is said and done I can honestly say your book changed the course of my life, so again thanks.

WOW! Thanks for that tremendous compliment. Really appreciate the feedback.

Obviously put a lot of time and effort into writing it. Assumed some risk (financial and political) by publishing it. But feedback like that - and the success we've had supporting the Special Operations Warrior Foundation - makes it definitely worth it.

We should count these up...eleven more and we can claim "credit" for putting another ODA on the battlefield! :lifter
Thanks again!

A ride? In that car? He better have a seatbelt and a crash helmet. :D

Guess what book I found in his room?


My knife - he still has to earn his.

This may be the last time I chauffeur him around. He is buying my old truck which is already decorated up for him and then he will be able to chauffeur himself around.

Selected. Class 02-10, 18D and Indonesian. Roger that!

I have to agree with Defender1984, your book was a great coach. Thank you for the time and effort you put into that book. For what it's worth, it greatly improved my changes during selection, just as the books' purpose says! The three things i'd recommend to anyone going to selection: "Get Selected", a canteen straw, and crocs! So count me as number 2 on that team, and now 10 more for an ODA!

Agreed, but make it 3 canteen straws, I had one, lost it to the draw monster in the middle of the night during land nav during Ida. I would also add a pair of shin guards, would have made kicking every down tree in the woods much less painful :)

Automatic26 11-28-2009 12:18

Selected class 02-10 Arabic, 5th group. I would second the crocs to give your feet a rest in the field. Also 2 quart straws are clutch. Hydrating while lightening your ruck=brilliant.
Thanks to TR, TS, and warrior-mentor for all the posts. They helped a ton. I felt like I was well prepared going in and all I had to do was take it day by day event by event. Thanks.
