Hello everyone, so I'm having a hard time finding out what the selection process is for the coast guard's MSRT. In fact there really isnt much of anything online about them.
I know they have their requirements for entry into their A&S (ie. 50 push ups, situps, 1.5 mile run, etc ) posted, but there is absolutely nothing online about them aside for SOFREP type articles. No mission stories, no books, no selection information except for one reddit post I saw.
Does anyone know if its swim centered like BUDS?
I spoke to several recruiters who knew very little about them but said the best suggested route to get there was to be a boarding officer for a few years and staying in good shape.
This is something I am considering now since I'm moving to Florida and am currently a government contractor electrical engineer with a clearance, prior service enlisted Marine.
Theres a lot of coast guard action with drug interdiction down there and I am currently working with a recruiter to join as a reserve commissioned boarding officer for a few years then planning to go active to try out for the MSRT DAS (direct action).
Does anyone have any recommendations on their selection prep? Anyone know anything about them?
Any information is greatly appreciated.
