What is your advice for someone like me who has not enlisted yet but is training for Pararescue?

My advice for someone wanting to be a PJ is doing your research, look at all the missions PJs have done and compare that to what all the other special operations forces have done and talk to all of the recruiters. When you actually make your decision to be a PJ you MUST be all in and BURN THE BOATS. From that point on, every moment you spend awake, Pararescue should be in the back of your mind and should influence the decisions you make. This will force you to do the right thing, not partying all night or getting up and going to work out when you don't want to.
