Greetings everyone,
The title speaks for itself but allow me to elaborate. Growing up, I always wanted to be a Navy SEAL. For me, that was the epitome of what it meant to be "Special Forces". Obviously I was wrong. I learned more about the ACTUAL SF guys and realized that they are a whole different breed of soldier. They truly encompass the true meaning of what it means to be "special". Not because they have access to top of the line equipment but because they can use what they learned and apply it to many different scenarios. The fact that a 12 man team of SF guys can go behind enemy lines and operate independently baffles and amazes me. But I digress. I am 18, joining the army soon as an option 4, 11b. My goal is to make it to an airborne infantry unit and drop an SFAS packet as soon as I can (I turn 20 Dec, 2021). I understand my maturity isn't all there yet but my drive and willpower reassures me that I WILL make it to be an ODA team member one day.
Best regards,
Garrett
