Sir,
I was a combat cameraman assigned to 5th SFG from 2005 til 2007. I was part of the Signal Detachment which fell under Head Quarters Company/Support Battalion. I can only tell you so much about life and environment during the time I stated above, which it wasn't long at all. I spent most of the time overseas deployed with group. But the culture is a little bit different than the regular Army units. In my case, there were only three combat documentation Soldiers so, we were a little busy both overseas and in garrison. If I could point something out from my time in group, is the culture which could be a little shocker for some. Goor luck Sir!

Sir, we have many SF NCOs and Officers that are still active and veteran/retirees on the site, you should search them out and ask for advice or pointers. If you click the RallyPoint Universe tab and then the unit tab and search for SF units you can find many to reach out to and ask the pertinent questions for your desired needs. Good Luck.
