Dont know if you'll have seen the introductions post from me or this first, but I am Brian Healy. Grandson of a retired SF leader, Maj Gen Mike Healy.

My dream of becoming SF is to be with others like me. Why go along in life wondering if you could have, without even trying. So i will try, do my best, and if I succeed then I know my ways are set. Training has become my life.

As my grandfather Maj Gen Mike D Healy (Iron Mike of 5th) told me in many of our talks: "You can join the army, and feel proud about what you do, or you can try and do what I know you can do, and become an SF soldier. There you will be amoung your own, who will be your family, friends, and alltime best pals you could ever ask for. You'll feel safer, even in more danger. And you will never forget why you are there. I know you can do it"

He also said in private talk when I decided to go for SF, that you cannot explain why...you just know. Not in a thousand words could I begin to really explain why I want to do this. I guess the only reasons that can be put to words are the brotherhood ,desire, and yeah it'd be fun as hell. Other than that, it's just in my heart...and noone could take that from me. Thanks
