I wasn't going through BUDs I did SWCC. I had stress fractures on my right foot. I could have just pushed through but I was very disappointed with the level of professionalism that was displayed from my instructors etc. Also when there was discussion of the type of missions etc that the instructors had actually done I was very disappointed. If I could go back and do over again then I would have submitted for BUDs instead of SWCC, but that’s in the past now.
I had never known about 18x or being able to try out for SF until after I had left training. A fellow classmate new about it and had told me about the program. So I started doing research on the job and the selection process. I believe the mission of SF suits me better than the other programs. I enjoyed my time in the field when I was stationed with the Seabees and I did well with land nav. Never to the extent of what they do in selection. I believe with my past experiences and with my drive I would make a great candidate for SF.
As far as meeting the requirements for SF that’s no problem I have plenty of time to work those issues which is why like I explained earlier I want to start talking with a recruiter to make sure that all my ducks are in a row etc. I do appreciate the help/advice that you guys have given me and what I've read from others. Thank you for taking that time.
