Quick update as it's been almost 1 year since my last one.

I recently arrived in Coronado along with the rest of my BUD/S Class. It's great to finally be here in the place that I have dreamt about for the past few years, and to be surrounded by a ~150 highly motivated individuals.

Running the O-course is a blast, running on soft sand sucks, and running with boats on heads is a kick in the pants. My motivation is through the roof though, and I'm looking forward to starting 1st Phase. I'll try to post again with an update after phase starts.

Also, anyone with questions about Navy boot camp or BUD/S Prep feel free to pm me.

It's been a month, how goes it? You should be done with BO by now.
To piggyback on what JK07 said, I was amazed at how many highly-motivated studs quit on the first day of phase during surf torture...and that wasn't the shit hitting the fan part.

I quit during week 1 of 1st Phase.

I've now been reclassified, am almost done with my brief stint at school in Pensacola, and I'll be heading to my PDS back on Coronado in a few short weeks. I have a few ideas of what I might like to do with my career from here but I can't seem to lock in on one yet. So for the time being I'm going put my head down and work on getting as many quals and checking as many boxes as I can.

I do want to say that I'm truly grateful for the time I had in Class 316. I have no regrets other than quitting. Don't fucking quit guys.

Just curious. Why did you quit now that you have had time to reflect on it?

When I made my decision to quit, it was because I knew that I couldn't carry my share of the weight. I felt like I didn't belong / didn't deserve to be there with those guys. So I finished out logs and the next couple of evolutions until lunch and then made my intentions known.

In retrospect, I think I should have stuck with it until I was ran out from under a boat or log by the guys, or pulled out by an instructor. I don't know if that would have been better, but that's what I wish I had done.

Plenty of rates go through Corey Station for A-shcool. What did you pick up after dropping?

I picked up APACT aka Undesignated Airman. I recently arrived at my PDS in Coronado and am looking forward to the next step in my career.
 
After researching the various special operations careers in the AF I decided on putting my effort toward acquiring the grey beret of the SOWT. At the beginning of the year I completed the NCO assessment and got picked up, then completed the CCT/SOWT selection. Awaiting weather school now and trying to get to airborne and sere first since I have a wait.
 
I have had a few set backs last few months but hoping by the end of this month or next I should be where I need to be..

Current

1500m Swim 30:00
3 mile Run 26:00
Pushups 2 min 58
Situps 2 min 76
Pullups 2 min 12

Need to improve my run and pushups...
