Some Guidance!

[Seabee44]

I am currently on active-duty in the Navy. I am a 38 year old Seabee stationed at NAS Jacksonville. During my 2000 Okinawa deployment I had the great honor to train and work with some members of Team 5 and SBU-12. Since then I have been trying to get my BUDs package or SWCC package past the age barrier. I recently took the SEAL "In" PRT and scored the following: 500yard swim w/boots & BDU pants 11:16, Push-ups 67, Sit-ups 81, Pull-ups 11 and 1.5 mile run w/boots and BDU pants 10:23. I train everyday, including pool work. Is there anyway to get around the age barrier?

Thanks for your help!!!!!

SeeBee.. Best iI an tell you is be presistant.. you might give the SEAl Detailer a call..
and keep submitting requests for an age waiver.

Thanks Wetwash,

I received some info from an operator with Team 4 in Little Creek. He pretty much gave me the same advice. Be persistant, and never give up your dream. Eventually, someone will take an interest!!!

God Bless, you are a real HERO!!!!
