Start working out now. Seriously, even if he's in good shape, he needs to be in excellent shape.

He's a gym junkie and a trophy-winning surf lifesaver; over six foot tall, next to zero fat and a ton of muscle. His dad was a first-grade rugby forward, and he got all of the athletic genes.

I'm sure that he's still gonna suffer during basic, but he's got a substantial headstart on most folks.


I didn't realize the SAS recruited out of the Navy. Is this an Australian thing?

I dunno how the Brits do it, but the Australian SAS draws from across the ADF. You're officially part of the Army if you make it in (and most candidates come from the Army commando units), but you can apply from other parts of the military.

That's my understanding of it, anyway: I tried digging around on the web to confirm things, but the SAS are secretive to the point of paranoia [1], so there's not much info out there. If you go to the official military websites, in the lists of "Units in the Australian Army" they just omit 4RAR(Cdo) without explanation, and likewise with the SAS.


[1] There was a great moment during the invasion of Afghanistan where the US ambassador was giving media conferences praising SAS actions over there, while the Australian government were still "refusing to confirm or deny" that the SAS were involved at all.
