One of my fellow team sgt is a former Recon Marine, our old company SGM was a Recon Marine.
BLUF, lots of Marines cross over to Army SF, but you hardly ever hear of an SF Guy going to the Marines or to Marine Recon.

18C4V,
That's something I have also noticed after reading many Spec-Ops forums.....
I don't believe I've ever heard of an SF soldier, a Navy SEAL or an Air Force Pararescueman who left their service to become a Recon Marine....but I hear a TON of stories of Marines leaving the Corps for these other Spec-Ops units.
There must be a "Moral of the Story" in there somewhere!
