well if you are spec4..thats cool. I did Airborne, Air Assault, SERE and Ranger... so I'll retract my chairforce statement, and commend you on actually working, unless you're an officer, in which case I'll reinstate the chariforce and non-working statement :P please forgive my n00besque n00bidom
combat medic is offered to anyone, and often required of basic infantry (which is to say thats UNimpressive) and isnt a hard one.... combat dive is only open to the higher eschelon of ARMY SPECFOR (in the army) - its primarily a NAVY school, SEALS and underwater welders....being airforce you couldnt do Ranger, as thats Army Specific and the USAF only has 3 main groups of SF. WHich are you?. What is the AirForce acronym for SERE and whats your MOS not your SF MOS, but your pre sepcfor mos?
In the Army I was a 33T and a 96H (33T electronic warfare system repair - basically we built logic circuits from shit laying about nad made it work), and (96H JSTARS TacOps aerial target tracking and survellience - we also did a lot of CFF and TACFIRE missions involoving the upheaval of WMDs, picked and tracked targets for AH64s and and made it safe for them to fire on enemy tanks, as the Longbow antenna is only FLAR, we alos did a lot of BDA with UAVs)...high stress, lots of hig command reporting and hung out in the TOC when not in field with LRS teams.
AFSC* for us, not MOS. I am an IT2, previously Security Forces, 3P0, the statement you made about Air Force personnel not being able to attend ranger school is false, I did it as Security Forces, who can also attend Sniper school for that matter, the rest of the schools are basic Pararescue courses.
ok... forgive me, but I run into lots of people who "fake the funk", claiming rediculous things from DELTA force, to Green Beret, Force RECON and so on, so I placed errors in there to see if you knew what the hell you were talking about. Please understand that its just one of those things that really bothers me. If you can do it - say so, if you can't dont make it up. Its dishoors the field. Thats teh way I look at it. I went through Ranger school with two AF personnel so I knew you COULD go through, but only those really there woudl know, as you cant just look it p on the internet. Much respect. I also know that the rest of the schools are basic Pararescue. I have a friend who, while in, was Pararescue. However, the combat medic school for the army, you can voulenteer to do that if you like, its kind of like...something to do and say you know. I still have marks where my battle buddy screwed up the IV (and I begged for the change to do a field trach. on HIM)... I'm not one of those ppl that really cares what service someone is in, I know first hand that each branch has a section that can do heavy damage really fast and really quietly. Proud of you man...like I said , sometimes I wish I was still in.
