But there's always a General somewhere who loves to change things.<br /><br />Be aware, it could change 3 or 4 times, before you get into it.Response by SGT Mark Saint Cyr made May 3 at 2018 10:22 PM2018-05-03T22:22:24-04:002018-05-03T22:22:24-04:00Al Bay3598569<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Ah okay. I didn't know SF/Green Berets were the same thing, lol. But it makes sense.Response by Al Bay made May 3 at 2018 10:24 PM2018-05-03T22:24:12-04:002018-05-03T22:24:12-04:00SGM Bill Frazer3598571<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Good Grief- 1. SF is Green Berets- selection is patterned after British SAS- Mad Mike came up with it- and it is a bear used to have a 30% survival rate. Grueling is an understatement- yet brawn often quits, it's guts that normally wins it. Rangers are a tough course, cooperate and graduate- guts win there too, selection rate is normally under 40-50%. 2. Both train constantly on small unit tactics. 3. Rangers normally 11 series MOS, SF is 18 series MOS. 4. SF cross-trains more than Rangers (expected to know 2 duty positions as an expert. Plus SF has to acquire a 2nd language- Rangers let's God slot them out- that way you don't have to speak anything but English.Response by SGM Bill Frazer made May 3 at 2018 10:25 PM2018-05-03T22:25:13-04:002018-05-03T22:25:13-04:002018-05-03T22:18:18-04:00
