The only advice I would give you is to spend some time in the pool. Many many guys show up to RSS who can run 5 min miles and do 100's of Push ups, sit ups and pull ups... But can't swim 100 meters....

FWIW.

Good luck my man.
I have actually been thinking about getting a swim coach. Someone to push me harder than I would push myself. Mind you, I push myself pretty hard when needed, but there is always room for improvement. Just let me know when you get ahold of your friend(s) and I will give you my email to pass along. Btw, thanks.

Sure. Again they will give you the Navy perspective. You may want to consider Navy if you want more viariety. We do work with SEALS, EOD, and have a bunch of other tactical missions outside of SAR. Might interest you...


But the 6+ month deployments suck... no doubt....

That's why I would rather be in the CG. I would be stateside and I could finish my degrees and get my MBA's a lot easier I believe.

I will tell you right now, I will never do that again. I simply made a thread, simply stating that I have a few questions for a recruiter, in regards to testing and my physical fitness testing. Basically because I have been given nothing but the run around where I am located, so I was hoping I would receive some answers there. The some old hag starts complaining how I am bashing the recruiters. It's like, WTF? old lady! It was far from bashing. She then goes on to say how recruiters have a more stressful job than ship captains. Really? Is she really that effin retarded?

I then basically told her that she was wrong with every assumption she made, and then told her to basically not respond to any of my threads. Then her other female friend came in, and tried to start too.

It just really frustrates me, when people comment on things and they make either assumptions or personally do not have the slightest clue on anything in regards to the question. It's really annoying as well. Guess that means I will be emailing recruiters directly again. End of rant.
You shouldn't be bashing the Forum Trolls.. It is very stressful for them to try to start arguements on every topic posted. It is unfair for you to assume that they are clueless on the topic, just because there responses make no sense. And how dare you tell them not to respond to any of your threads!! If everyone told the trolls that, then what would they do all day? Ever think of that? Trolls have feelings to! I can't believe you are so selfish.







































P.S. If anyone didn't get that, I was being sarcastic.

I did four miserable years as a recruiter, and yeah, the job is horrible. Beyond description.

Good luck pursuing AST. That is one tough job.
