not even want to mention the word "SOF" but guess you just spill
all out.
as for these... no worrie my friend
SOF have been open to public long long ago 
before the selection, 1 WO came to my unit to show us the video on
SOF and told us the good money and the overseas training that comes
along but during the selection test, they only say SOF,
never say team delta until 1 of the trainers asked "who coming for
team delta".
as for these... whenever theres selection... i think alot
of guys will have the chance to attend to this video and sometime'
live' show session
as for the team delta... i think its just a batch name
or something like that.... like our batch.... we call it batch
9.... opssss sorry... maybe i'm wrong

that time still thought team delta thing is some special team
inside SOFor some other special unit... a lot of guys in my camp
were tempted by the good money. heard a sgt in SOF earn a lot more
$ than a normal infantry SGT
good money.... hummmmm as for this... is 800 alot to you?
for that type of risk involve? ahahhaaahah maybe yes... the
different is mainly becoz of grade you received... a sgt in out
Unit can be Grade at 6/5 (after pass out our course!!!).... but in
normal Infantry unit... a SSG may be only have a grade of 4/5 or
5/5.... so... thats the different!!! but... i would say... not
really high pay lah... hahahahahaha

so that time, a lot of us went. somemore that time was during 1997
crisis. no jobs outside so thought can sign on but all who went
with me decided to ORD better
.
u mean all of u guys tong all the way? wah.... then thats
very good result man!!! for what i see in some selection... 60 ppl
take up! first week... more then half gone!!... by the time of 2-3
weeks... it would left less then 10 of them! and i wont be suprise
that just two day before the end of selection.. theres still ppl
give up!!! can you imagin... after tong for so many weeks... just 2
more day... some of the guys still give up? sigh.... really
waste... on the other hand... ekekekkee i think our Ranger more
jialat!!! sometime i would say Ranger even more shit!!!
]
anyway, before the selection, i also thought all SOF are musclar
and very big size but surprised that 1 SOF was quite short and not
very muscular.
as for these... you sure? i chat with quite a few of
them... but they look ok ler.... i would say they really gone
through all shit.. and i truly believe they are there
.....
i also know a few guys who passed the selection test but they were
not offered a chance to join SOF.something that puzzles me till
today. you know why? also heard from the instructor that 2 guys who
got after pushing tonner up the slope in the previous selection
course...
sometime not only FIT and you can join them.... IQ test,
team work, your will power, and determination also play a part...
thats why you will heard these... MIND OVER YOUR BODY...
]
overall opinion of the selection: insane!!!!
luckily no obligation to join so i just went back to
my camp and happily wait for ORD!
its up to individual.... as i also believe.... only those
that in that will APPRECIATE those training
hahahahahaha ]
sometimes, also don't know why some people can pass the selection
and take on bigger jobs inside SOF. probably its in their blood.
kudos to all those in SOF. you also in SOF? what drives you to join
SOF?
i'm not in SOF,..... as there are also some other unit
which i think its got lots of pride... actually.... once i intend
to join the armour... as when i'm young... i'm staying some where
at LCK.... and i always have this in mind... ITS DAMN NICE TO RIDE
ON THOSE TANK.... hahahhahah and i really like to chat with armour
tankee.... and thats why when i have a chance to work with 42
armour.... i can have a non stop chat with them....
hahahhhaaha]
