Before SFAS was enacted SF candidates went through three weeks of "pre-phase" training. Maybe it wasn't as intense as SFAS but I still saw a number of people quit. I also saw a lot of people quit or fail during the SFQC, especially during the land navigation portion of Phase I. After completing the SFQC I can remember some of the younger guys that I went through with getting kicked off of teams or thrown out of Group for doing stupid things. It could be that "selection" in Special Forces continues until the day that you retire.
