First let me say thank you to the authors of this book. Definitely one of the best books I have ever read. I have never left a review before but had to give a quick nod to this one. They put a lot of thought into this book and tried to answer every area of concern, they could think of that the aspiring Special Forces applicant might need to know. The other branches of the military should take heed and follow suit. Thank you for the great info!

I've recently signed my 18X contract, and as I assume that many who are looking at this book are planning to do the same, let me assure you, this book is a great asset. Where I'm currently living, there isn't a nearby post nor a SF recruiting batt nor National Guard unit nearby, which puts me on my own for training. This book has become my trainer.

It's full of useful "tips & tricks," which are what really make the Major's book different than everything else I've read. Lots of books will talk about Selection and what occurs there, but nothing else has given me useful advice on how to lace my boots, treat my feet, take care of my back, and what resources are available to my family. This book gives me information as if I was being prepped 1-on-1 by my squad leader, which makes it very personal and easy to read.

"Get Selected," as the Major states, was intended to help quality candidates prep for, and pass, Selection. I believe that with advice contained within, hard work and discipline, we can definitely succeed at SFAS.

Great book to help prepare for SFAS. The 30-day workout is great to get started and easy to adapt to increase difficulty over the next few months. Also all the recommended reading and footcare tips are very helpful. A must for all non prior service X Rays.
