I have Known several enlisted that jumped to the army for SF as enlisted and some as O's. They came with other outlooks and experiences that contributed to the teams capability. That is what makes a team unique. You really need that regular military experience to draw from to enhance the mission.

I’m reading what you’re saying SF_BHT, the different experiences can be good for the teams, and the regular AF/NAVY/ARMY/MARINE experience gives you something to draw from, a base line.
If I can SF_BHT, can I ask how you would view an O from another service if he showed up on your team? Would it make a difference to you, or would it simply depend on how he performs while he’s there?
I know that interservice transfers have always happened at the enlisted level, but I have not found much in terms of accounts of it happening on the officer side, not to say it is happening more now or didn't happen before, but I've read on this board and elsewhere about AF officers applying but not much of any making it. I simply wanted to get first hand information if possible. (I’m not asking if it’s possible I know it is, I was simply curious as to the experiences of those who have done it, or experienced those who have)
As for the different experiences, I would think the experience Navy SEAL officers, AF CROs or STOs would have would be very applicable. What I'm more curious about is the experience from the regular AF or Navy officers.
