I was in college in 84 when I met one of my buddies Dad who had been an SF Captain in Vietnam. I asked him about going directly into SF and at the time it could only be done through the reserves.

I was classified REP 63 and after a year of college enlisted into the reserves to go straight into 11th SFG in 1985. I trained with Co B 1/11th before leaving for basic then went to basic, AIT (91A combat medic), jump school, then SFQC. I was an E2 when I started and a PFC when I graduate in 87. Turned 21 during goat lab at Bragg. After I graduated I went right onto a team.
