From the US Army SERE school. As an active duty Army soldier I was privy to this school at Ft. Bragg, NC as a "bad guy" and got to "role play" and give the soldiers hell who rolled through the school. Now as a contractor I've had to take the course online. At first I laughed and taunted the idea of "SERE online?!?!?!" After completing the course I can honestly say there was some good material and training in the course and I took many notes and scored a 100 on the exam. Hope I never have to put any of this training into use.

Just thought I'd share. :)

Stang man, we had to do SERE, winter survival, over-water survival, and desert survival. Talk about something sucking royally. I'm just glad I never did the POW stuff; I hear that's the worst.

Don't forget your authentication answers! They will shot you if you get them wrong.

Did you pass your Medical Evac computer coarse?
