You should look into the Rep 63 program. If you're goal is SF, why use the prior service route. Rep 63 has a very high attrition rate...This means that you are accepting 11B as an MOS, attending ABN school, then going to Ft Bragg to pass a multiphase training pipeline. The benefit to this is that you will enter each phase of training immediately after completing the last phase. The downside is the Rep 63's don't get a break from training and you will have a decrease chance of passing. Mostly the young men who enter the Rep 63 program and subsequently washout lack the maturity to be Special Forces. If you are mature, fit, and suitable then your endeavor will bear fruit.
