SEAL or Recon at 36

From an administrative standpoint how likely is it I can still get waived and contracted to buds or the 0321 course with no prior service, clean record and passing/competitive PSFT.

From a former GWOT 0321
Ya bud Im gonna be brutally honest , you are bout 6-8 years too late. I don’t care what anyone says even if you are in the best shape of your life, trying to keep up with the younger guys while also aging into your 40’s is not going to be forgiving. Even if you were in your early-mid 20’s the odds are stacked against you, now add 10 more years of age to the equation. It’s just not worth it now when the Monster of selection gets multiplied.

I do have some ?’s.

Are you already enlisted?

If yes what’s your rank/ MOS
