What is 1st Battalion, 1st Special Forces Group like?

And what will I likely be doing as a 35F? Asking because I plan on reenlisting to go there

You can plan to reenlist to go there, but if there isn't a spot you won't be going there; if you aren't Airborne you probably aren't going there.

If HRC did come back with a spot for you, it's a normal 35F job. You'll either be working in the SCIF of managing clearances in the SSO. Possibly both over the three years you'll be there.

Torii is an outstanding place and the unit building is basically brand new. You can walk down to the beach and eat your lunch on the ocean. There's an LZ on the beach, I used to keep a set of ranger panties and snorkel gear in the car so I could snorkel the reef there while waiting for the birds to come in before a jump. You will probably get a lot of opportunity for TDY over the three years you are there. Go to Jumpmaster school while you can as well.
