Special mission recruiters look for elite to take up challenge Cpl. James S. McGregor

CAMP FOSTER (June 28, 2002) -- Personnel from all branches of service on Okinawa can attend a Special Mission Recruiting seminar scheduled for July 1-3 at various locations on Torii Station, Kadena Air Base and Camp Foster.

Two special mission recruiters from the 1st Special Forces Operational Detachment-Delta will conduct six briefings and two evaluations on the process of selecting service members to be recruited into Delta Forces, according to Army Staff Sgt. Sarah B. Wingfield, career counselor, 10th Area Support Group, 9th Theater Army Area Command, U.S. Army, Japan.

The first two days of the event will be spent checking in and briefing attendees on Special Mission Recruiting and Delta Forces, Wingfield said. An Army Physical Fitness Test and a Psychological Evaluation Test will be conducted on the final day.

There are many prerequisites for officers and noncommissioned officers and higher in the selection process. All officers and NCOs must be male, a volunteer, a minimum of 22 years old, airborne qualified or willing to volunteer for airborne duty, and a U.S. citizen. Volunteers must pass a background security investigation, an Army PFT and a modified Class II Flight medical examination. Finally, they can have no limiting physical profile, no history of recurring disciplinary action, a minimum two-year commitment upon selection, and they must be active duty, reserve or National Guard.

All enlisted personnel must be an E-5 through E-7 with a minimum of four years time in service. They must also have a General Technical score of 110 or higher.

Officers must be a captain or major and have a college degree. Also, officers must have completed 12 months of successful company, battery, troop, special forces detachment or aviation platoon command time.

According to Sgt. 1st Class Mike Thayer, special mission recruiter, Delta Forces, the special mission recruiters will be screening all participants closely for these prerequisites.

"There are currently seven recruiters that cover the globe twice a year (in search of qualified service members). As recruiters, our job is to conduct briefings to provide information about the unit and prerequisites required to apply for operator or support jobs," said Thayer, a Baldwin, Mich., native.

Wingfield said that those who meet the criteria, and are selected, will be offered a unique opportunity.

"It will open a different type of job they can do for their country," Wingfield said. "It won't really be so different for those who transfer to a different branch of service. Instead it will broaden their horizons, because this is for all the services. Delta Forces is built up with the best of all services," the Gary, Ind., native said.

Wingfield concluded by saying the transfer would be a good experience for any service member for many reasons.

"It will allow them to get outside the everyday routine of their primary job," Wingfield said. "This is also a good career enhancer, because being in Delta Forces is greater than saying 'I was in the Army, and I did this job,' and I'm sure it's the same way for the Marines, the Navy and the Air Force."
