That story was pretty universally known among the 18X candidates in 2007. It seemed it happened in the class before the storyteller's buddy, no matter which class that buddy had been in.

I emailed Discovery, and this is what they replied (I missed it as well):

Question to the QPs...

No rank, no HOAHs, but during team week, are candidates drawn to the inclination to pull the rank card in situations where shit has hit the fan and no one has any control? Team 4 was ok according to the cadre and then the good idea fairly came in and jacked it up. IOW, people wanted to input their .02 and contribute to the confusion as a result. If a candidate was tapped as PL and made it known that his decisions would stand and he alone would be accountable for them, how would that go down in SFAS? Also, do senior NCOs or officers announce themselves quietly and naturally stand out or is that discouraged?

Correct me if I am wrong, which I probably am, but it would seem that those with leadership experience would on average, be able to untangle team 4 type situations and thus accomplish the mission.

Thank you for your service and time.

Sounds like the story in my class, except he ran into the woods and when the Cadre asked for his roster number all he heard was an e-tool squeking open. Same stories differant times.

Ditto!:D

I enjoyed watching the show and the glimpse it gave into the process of becoming a QP. As others have pointed out, while I was watching I thought that the show might reveal a lot to upcoming students and wondered if it could hurt the process. I almost kicked myself when I reminded myself who was teaching the class. Something tells me the cadre have a pretty big bag of tricks. Finally, I could not help but wonder if some of the cadre featured walk the halls of ps.com.

I like that there was no rank and the no Hooahs. "Hooah" can get really annoying. "Hooah" what they teach you in basic training..."don't think, just say hooah".

No rank helps to avoid credentialism.

I wonder if the guy that lost his weapon got selected? :eek:

Very diplomatically put. :D
Who said talking to G chiefs doesn't give you valuable experience in tactful, interpersonal communications. :D

Some of us tend to blurt out, "Oh Bullshit!";)

Show up and find out.

We are not going to give away all the keys to the process...

What's a "hooah" ???

I will tell you having served 20 years I never said "hooah"......:rolleyes: Then again I never used the word "operator" when referring to Special Forces soldiers.

I still can't believe kids were bringing contraband like ripped fuel and thinking they could get away with it. I couldn't help but think- What idiots!

Google not working?

There are people posting on this thread that are excellent examples of why we have a selection and assessment process.

Some of you would probably be on the truck headed back to Bragg before the first 24 hours were passed.

Trust me, after watching over 40 classes, you get a sense of these things.
