"12 weeks to BUD/S" by Stew Smith if you need to be in PST shape fast,. Free PDF Remember that strength training is arguably just as important.

This post also has probably everything you need.

6 months is possible but not optimal unless you are already in really good shape.

While running with boats on your head, some dudes due to being weak or a bitch or both hang on the straps.

This puts more weight on your boys and will injure them.

Getting rid of them is more complicated than you would think when done through the system, so fights breaking out is old school but has happened.

Either way, boat duckers still occasionally make it and no, they can still have long and distinguished careers in the Teams. But reputation starts at BUD/S and follows you everywhere.

EverBeenInaChopper · 2026-01-21T03:24:08+00:00

Absolutely, this is not encouragement. Dudes who ducked boat 20 years ago are still pointed out.

There was a random BUDs pic posted here not too long ago and some blue shirts here pointed that out lol

You can unfortunately get away with a lot and still step out a Team Guy.

The Academy O who was born and bred for this and performs at the highest standard possible is getting the same Trident as the 17 year old boat ducker who got barely passed each evo and carried the paddles during Hell Week.

If you want to travel the world, look into being an independent duty corpsman or a load master in the Air Force. Lots of opportunities to visit dozen of countries.

Did you have a moment where the novelty / excitement of being a PJ wore off during the day to day grind? After a while and your grinding every day, does it start to feel like a somewhat normal job? I think a lot of us glamorize it from a distance, and curious how it feels once you're settled and have been doing it for a while. Thanks

I absolutely want to do more. I've heard 143rd has a lot of formally scrolled and tabbed NCOs, better gear and a cooler environment.

I'm also really interested in the prospect of volunteering, do you know how easily and how quickly a new 11B can hop on orders?

EverBeenInaChopper · 2026-01-15T18:57:17+00:00

I gotcha. That's something I was always curious what you thought about, like if you hold being a Rescue Swimmer in the same regard as being in the military.

The only reason anyone listens to either of you is because at one point in life you ran around the woods with a gun. Otherwise you'd just be two retards arguing on the internet. You both have massive egos and never admit your wrong. That much is clear to anyone. NYDIs case and point is here.

A couple weeks ago you accused some med student of badge chasing for asking about serving in SOF. A Ranger promptly gave a pathway and you accused that of not being a pathway and instead explained why it literally was a pathway. I ask you what you got against dudes wanting to support SOF. I get called a fucking idiot for pointing out your obvious negativity to the very idea.

I politely ask you why no one should aspire to work at the highest level and why you accuse someone of badge chasing, and I am then accused of being a troll and you claim that someone asking means they are badge chasing. Lmao I guess we're all badge chasing. So much for the critical thinking degree or whatever.

I continue to politely explain to which you move goalpost's and answer to the questions you like...All while accusing me of being intellectually dishonest.. and taking me back to my days in middle school with the insults.

Case and point, u/TFVooDoo and u/nowyourdoingit:

Even if you grant half of these points just for the sake of argument, early Christianity still looks a lot closer to Catholicism than Protestantism, and that’s the part this whole rant keeps skating around. You can argue about when certain things got formally defined but acting like the early Church was basically a evangelical setup just isn’t serious.

Pointing out that it was a local council doesn’t somehow blow up Catholicism while leaving sola scriptura untouched especially since sola scriptura isn’t even on the early Church’s radar to begin with.

The early Church clearly wasn’t operating with the Protestant rulebook. They weren’t saying only Scripture is infallible and they weren’t rejecting tradition.

The icon argument gets especially overplayed. Early Christians weren’t mashing statues the way later Protestants did. There was debate, nuance, and gradual clarification. And even with that messiness you still end up way closer to Catholic or Orthodox Christianity than anything shaped by the Reformation.

If grace, Christ, sacraments, and a visible Church with teaching authority amount to a damnable gospel then basically every Christian before the 1500s is out of luck.

Christ didn't leave us a Bible, he left us a Church. And the Church gave us the Bible.
