Lol...

Just got back working with some SARC guys. They were really legit, at least the ones with the platoon I was attached to. Those guy had a littany of quals; freefall, 18D, BUD/S, A&S, BRC, BCTT, etc. They always handled themselves well, and were a good role model for a lot of the junior Marines (especially since Recon is allowing pipeliners straight from BC/SOI). Mad respect for those guys.
