Question - would those running selection have been required to pass selection? I worked with a guy, Major who was a Ranger and he was the first guy I ever met to really harp on the difference between being "Ranger Qualified" and being in a battalion. Claimed to have been an officer that oversaw parts of selection. Always wondered about it.

SFAS was all SF tabbed guys. There are officers in charge of it, but the actual course is run by the NCOs. There might of been officers at the graduation, but I honestly don't remember.

I never tried for the SMU stuff so can't comment on that.
