[QUOTE="TaskForceT, post: 9930"]
Don't get me started on the value of USASFC....as a Group S2 I went straight to USASOC everytime...USASFC IMO was a non-player even though they were across the street.  Contacting losing units works if you have visibility.  It was very common for us to have guys show up on our doorstep with orders in hand who were not on the gains roster.

IRT dirtbag O-5s and O-4s....MI has screwed themselves in the SoF arena.  (I'm sure this is no suprise to anyone.)  Since service with SoF is frowned upon by big-Army and has been touted as being "career-suicide", many of the guys who gravitate towards SoF assignments are those that have nothing to lose.  This means it's guys who have prior service and are approaching retirement anyway, or dirtbags who have nowhere else to go.  I came over as the last of the BQ'd CPTs and knew I was going to make MAJ and resident CGSC (when it still mattered) without a problem even if I got screwed on an OER.  I never suspected that I would be treated as an equal, emerge from the SoF experience with career enhancing jobs, experiences, and OERs under my belt.  MI needs to get over this mindset and start sending quality people instead of it's rejects.  That just gurantees a self-fulfilling prophecy.
