You Want Me To Do What
Jeff Kraus - 2010
Jeff is the only man to succeed at ALL THREE elite US Military Special Operations qualifications schools. His book aptly titled "You Want Me to Do What?" is a terrific account of what truly happens at Army Special Forces, Navy SEAL and Army Ranger TrainingHave you ever wondered what it would REALLY be like to go through Navy SEAL training? You may have heard the stories about the toughest military training in the world. What about Army Ranger training; the Army's elite shock troops? Prospective Rangers subsist on one MRE a day while humping 20 miles to recon their objective. How about Special Forces Green Beret training? Officially called the Q course, Army SF training has its own unique physical, mental and psychological tricks and traumas.Many people seem to think of Green Berets Army Rangers or Navy SEALs as supermen - in the Rambo sense of the word. This book exposes the human side of the men who become those Green Berets or Rangers or SEALs. Television and the movies tend to glorify these characters and would never show Rambo lost on a navigation operation saying a prayer before coming in for a rock portage or falling asleep on an ambush. This humorous side of these supermen-in-training is one of the foremost themes of this book.
