Gmanflyarmy,
Um…why are you looking for all the answers in SFAS? I understand that a lot of people are here to learn but at some point you have to draw the line with what to ask and just do it. S**t or get off the pot. For something like SFAS you prepare mentally and physically, but there are no easy wins and no super secrets that will just make it enjoyable for you. I myself have read many, many books on past JSOC/SOCOM operations and training. Simply for the education for my job, but I think you are missing the point. Soldiers are assessed on their abilities to adapt and endure, if you are out to gather all the intel there is on the subject before your class date then what are you really doing for the training system? I think the right answer would just be who you are and not pretend or force yourself to temporarily be something else you may be incapable of continuing. On any assessment military program those types of people are looked for too. The surprise is the whole purpose of the adventure path.

…I am sure this makes me a target, but I had to say something.
