If you're enlisted and branch INF you need to have Airborne and RIP (Ranger Indoctrination Program) in your contract.

Actually in the Navy you can go straight into Spec Ops. Just make sure you ask for the SEAL challenge. It is far different than the basic which other enlisted personnel go through. It is designed to prep you for BUD/S and once you've completed basic you'll be put in a class. However, ever since SEALs began their own recruiting, BUD/S classes have been full due to recruits coming from both Recruiters and SEAL specific recruiters. My buddy is on standby right now until november due to no room in BUD/S. Luckily hes been offered to go to OCS so he might luck out and secure a position.

[quote="batmann539"]The absolute bottom line is simple... If it's not in your contract, it isn't going to happen.

So I'm not quite sure how everything works out with these slew of comments and experiences from everyone. The more I hear of the subject, the more I get confused about the process.
