Hello to all of you. My name is John, I've just graduated from college with a Bachelor's in International Relations. I speak three languages in varying proficiencies and I'm starting a fourth independently. I studied abroad in China for several months in total immersion (not some BS Shanghai or Beijing program, I was one of only three people that spoke both English and Mandarin). I practiced Krav Maga for three years under a great instructor that has worked with LEOs, the Marine Corps, the Coast Guard, and JSOC. I was also a college athlete in D3 Track & Field.
I have always had an interest in joining the military or working for the government and lately I've researched a decent amount into the Special Operations units within each branch. I don't have any prior military background so I am coming to you all in the hopes that I can nail down the branch and unit right for me (as well as deciding to go enlisted or try for OCS). I realize this intro is a bit long compared to some I've seen but I wanted to give a full picture so I could get the best advice. Thanks and I hope to speak with some of you about preparing for a Special Operations MOS in the near future.
