One thing that I have been musing over for quite some time is that given the fact that there is such a wide variety of SOF in the Armed Forces what makes certain people choose to pursue a career in one over the other. Everyone has their own varying reasons for picking their career path i'm sure, however I began to wonder if different SOF were simply better fits for different personality types. So my question you is which personality types to you would seem to fit the different SOF such as Special Forces, Air force PJs, Seals, Rangers, and Combat Controllers.
Here is a list of the personality types scroll down and mouse over them to get a brief overview of each.

I did some searching and came across this thread back from 2009. The overwhelming result from this seemed to point to SF guys being INTJ's.

This should be the least of your worries.
