Hey-
Just wondering, am I the only one who has a strong urge to try out for the Navy SEALs? I guess it's always been a childhood dream of mine, before I discovered medicine. Plan to start med school in 2003 and perhaps defer or join after residency. Am I crazy? I know that SEALs can train to be corpsman (EMT-P certified and special ops medic training). I've been training in martial arts for several years now, and work out regularly.
Does anyone know of someone who has done this? I've read of a neurosurgery resident who used to be a SEAL. I would appreciate any information. Or perhaps I should just punch a wall a couple of times?
Thanks
