      Secretive for a reason, their training is top notch, their selections are all brutal and their equipment is on par with most SOF groups globally. If you are serious about joining make sure you get a proper training programme from dudes that have been there and done that, I'm on one from a company called FSCafrica, run by a former STF, SASF and current Royal Marine Commando. Its called their "prepcon" programme.
