This competition has nothing to do with your country or the actual Navy Seals. Since (presumably) everyone on TNation is engaged in athletic endeavors, why do they need to be told to get up off their butts and go do something? Do you even work out or do you just troll these threads trying to irritate everyone (if yes, you seem to be somewhat successful).

Makes sense to me. I mean, this site is populated by some of the most hard core, badass mofos on the internet.
Why not give it a shot and see if their shit is up to snuff with some of the truly most bad ass mofos in the real world?
You would think that as hard core as some of these kids are, seal training would just be all in a days play.

Rangers?[/quote]
Hahaha.
I don’t differentiate a whole lot between special forces, or which one is better. They all have their own way of sorting through and finding out who is right for their programs.
After all, I’m not one of any of them.
Maybe one of the special ops guys on the boards here could confirm or correct this, but I was told by an old friend of mine that after a certain point, they all get the same training anyways. He went regular army, then Airborn, Rangers, and further on from there. Some of the advanced training schools he went to were not solely Army.
I haven’t heard from him in a very long time though.

Kind of but not exactly. Rangers isnt really SF… if you’re in the army you can go through the the SF pipeline (green beret) If you want to go on further from their and go to CAG you can try. CAG is open to other military branches as well and is their Tier 1 force. Not all “Special Forces” are on the same level. Different strokes for different folks I guess
