Interested in being a PJ /k/. Sorry to be 'that guy'.

Seen this, OP? http://taskandpurpose.com/surviving-pararescue-training-simpler-think/

I wasn't even in the Air Force, let alone a PJ, so I can't say how genuine it is, but he gives a pretty detailed account of his time, and specifically mentions that the main thing that drove most of his class to quit was essentially mental exhaustion or a break in willpower, rather than anything physical.

You might as well tell the recruiter that you want to be a General.

How do you sign up for things like this? Do you have to already be in some kind of combat arms for a number of years before you can try out?

Pretty sure there are more PJ's than Generals

I hope you like nuclear missiles and north dakota.

No one likes North Dakota.

MY oldest brother has been a PJ for quite a few years now. The initial training is very very physical but yes a lot of it is mental as well. You can flunk out and retry again at multiple stages but yeah most people give in during the first few weeks.

The medical training is a whole different world of fun. So it requires tip top physical shape as well as intelligence.

There was a documentary on Netflix at some point in time can't remember the name and I don't know if it is still there.
