I've been in the Navy since 2006 and I am loving life. I was out at BUD/S in 2007, classed up with 265 and washed out in 1st Phase before Hell Week. I came in with a BS from a good college and thought I knew a thing or two, but I didn't. Had a fiancee who dumped me right before my first night evolution and being the stupid kid I was I thought it was the end of the world. I let that and my own mental weakness keep me from finishing what I came in to do on my first shot at joining the Teams. I'm prepping for my next go presently. I am big on being humble and I firmly believe that talking gets you no where. Those that have read a few of my posts know that I absolutely despise cocky behavior and big talk. I've been around a bit over the last 4 years working with specwar, SF, MARSOC etc and if there is anything that I've taken away from my time with them it's that real tough guys never talk about how 'mentally' or physically tough they are. Children talk like that and I've seen 40 year-old 'men' running around in ACU's with an M4 talking like little kids. Talk is cheap. Shut your mouth, do something and then don't waste time talking about how great what you did was - move on to the next thing.
