  • LOVE that you studs are doing crossfit for morning PT!

    Get your Thruster on!!!

    RLTW!

    3/75

  • ahhh, the jerry can tote.

  • @Baker090925 A new career field recently opened up. Special Tactics Officers (STO) act as commissioned combat controllers. Additionally, they can also lead PJ's. JTAC is actually a certification for what aircraft you can control. It's not a job. i.e. TACP's can become JTAC certified like CCT's. If you're serious about being an officer and going into STO I would suggest you look at the Academy. They have a lot of programs that feed into the special forces world. Best of luck to you!

  • @Baker090925 No. They can lead combat controller teams but they don't operate as JTACs in the field.

  • Can officer's become a JTAC? I'm thing about doing AFROTC and then this.

  • @hawaiiftbll security forces may not of been the best choice lol just got back from tech. hope your team isnt full of imature mental cases. but considering our captin comended us for NOT having underage drinkers two weeks in a row your screwed

  • @hawaiiftbll

    I'm thinking of doing the exact same thing. have to get my vision corrected

    but first I'm going into operations management then transferring. good luck to you buddy

  • What exactly is a combat controller, what do they do?

    

  • @swif33 Nice swif good luck man. I'm leaving MAR 08, 2011 for basic wish I could go directly into the CCT job instead of Security Forces first but I'll just make sure to use the time to be super prepared for indoc.

  • the vision requirements are either 20/70 or 20/80 like swif33 said. If you're below the eyesight thing just join in as something that has short tech school and get them to send you to the eye surgery. That's what I'm doing going in as Security Forces until I recover from surgery then transferring to CCT. Don't take the training lightly it is no joke the PAST test req are just a bare minimum to get into indoc course. You can find course req online to show you what you'll have to do to graduate it
