My son is a Captain in the ARMY Special Forces. He graduated from West Point. His training has included Airborne, Jumpmaster, Combat Diving, Ranger School, Army Sniper school and Army Special Forces training. He has completed two tours in Iraq. The first with the 82nd Airborne as the scout platoon leader and the second as the team leader of a Special Forces Dive team. He was awarded Bronze Stars for service on each of his tours in Iraq.
When I asked him what was the toughest training that he has gone through, He said the Army Combat Diving School was the toughest by far.
