A shortened SFAS?

It does NOT matter how long the course is or what changes are made...YOU'RE STILL GOING TO: HAVE TO COMPLETE IT!

Take one day at a time...prepare for it and FIDO!

Stay safe.

I concur with Guy........In my mind I picture a Steeper Ramp up Curve, meaning you would really need to be wired tight..........Thats just me though.

An old TAC told me one time " If you want something bad enough you'll stand on your head and shoot marbles for a week."

Don't think too hard on stuff you have no control over - just get ready and "DO IT".

Bob to the deep end of the pool.

Interestin...saw a similiar e-mail today. Won't be SF Command making the decision...it will be SWCS. Would like to see the POI.

The change came from SWC and it is indeed 14 days. I've seen the POI and I was "Tasked" from the top to go and observe the class and provide input back to the command.

NOTE: If you are a prospective candidate preparing to attend this class, the same mindset must apply. DON'T QUIT

. SFAS has never been an easy task and it has adapted and changed over the years (just like many things do) but the one consistent part is that you can't be selected if you aren't standing at the end.

Consider this when you're deep into the suck and you feel sorry for yourself...
The worst day in SF is better then ANY day in the Regular Army. Remember what Cpt Miller said to Private Ryan at the end of the movie Saving Private Ryan, "Earn this", and if you do, you will have the chance to join the only fraternity where EVERY single "Brother" of yours will never leave your side no matter what!
Something to consider...

I was in England a few months ago and there were some 18C who were 18X's. They were in the fist couple classes of the 18X program. They told me that their SFAS class was two weeks and it was some sort of pilot class. They did say it was a ball buster. Us "older " guys laughed and said "it must have sucked to be you"!!!!
