I'd definitely want to go through SOI and BRC, just for the experience alone, but the problem is that my ultimate goal is MARSOC and some deployments, I'm not sure it'd be fair to the unit to waste funds sending a guy through training only for him to leave for selection a few month or year later. I would like a deployment regardless, how is the deployment tempo of the unit with the draw down and troops leaving Afghanistan? My pft is 294 and my swim is pretty solid and getting better thanks to cammie swims. Ruck times are getting better. I just need some mentoring in land nav and hopefully the use of a land nav course. I also realize the point of why should they spend time dealing with someone who's never going to contribute to their unit. Thank you for the info and ideas, I greatly appreciate it.
