Idk, my time in the army I’ve tried plenty of times for special ops type stuff. They definitely don’t look for the most fit guy. They look for the right guy. The “perfect” score person sure is chosen, but that’s not always the case.
@@devinmansanarez3260 I actually went in as an officer so I already had my degree when I commissioned. But I hope the video doesn’t discourage anyone from going for HRT. You neither need to be a prior special operations nor prior regular military to try out for the HRT. But if you don’t go the TRP route you need at least 3 years of experience as a regular agent instead of 2 before you may attend selection.
Navy Seals are technically Tier 2. DEVGRU (Seal Team 6) are the only Navy Seals that are a Tier 1 unit similar to the Army’s Delta force or Ranger Reconnaissance Company (a smaller sized Tier 1 unit from 75th Ranger regiment)
@jonnysrevenge noone said they were the same dude simply said they all do similar ops which is true. The only proof you gonna get is the fact that they are tier 1 units and there missions are highly classified.
I feel stupid and I’m not so good in school but soon hopefully I can study and train hard for HRT Lots of government jobs I can pick up with right education and physical abilities
Hey man nothing against this channel which is great but i believe general discharge does one on Special activity division in the cia ground branch maritime an air branch
@@kojoe6984I am not trying to provide a recruiting video but rather show what an agency does and whether it would be a good fit. Some sites show all sorts of derring do by folks who spend their time doing nothing of the sort. They may train hard, but their work is boring.
1) don't put yourself down dude. I have struggled with the same contrary to friends etc. encouraging me otherwise. Don't put yourself down. At the same time don't feel shame if you don't. An agent career is still so commendable. My brother just died at a real young age as an ER guy and saved many lives, was about to enter med school. He did this all only a few years after being a party animal with a drinking issue. It was at a point as young HS student I'd have to stay up until the early morning to be on standby because...well he'd freak out intoxicated, I had/have training in combative things and my parents...well never knew if they'd need Mt help to subdue him. And he turned his life around and at his funeral a month ago we've had an outpouring of support from literally everyone at his hospital at how damn professional and good he was. I don't know if that helps, I'm just mentioning it to show you can do it no matter what your past looks like. I'd like to be HRT, it's unlikely but...He proved to me no matter where you're at...you can at least try. So don't be scared to give it a shot. If you fail, you're more of a man than 99% who are too scared to even attempt though. So don't abandon the dream if it is what you want. You may be rejected several times and told no, but I truly believe where there's a will there's a way. I've told myself the same thing for too long regarding my goals and recently as aforementioned I've realized...it's not what my idol would want me to think. Good luck brother. Whatever you do, you got this. Believe in yourself and keep your head up.
@@FuttBuckerson Very insightful response I appreciate the encouraging words it means a lot and sorry for your brother may he Rest In Peace. I will keep pursuing my goals and trying to be a better person every single day, sometimes is hard but I’ll keep trying my best.
Also, the pathway of joining the military to get to HRT is completely unecessary. Many are former military. Many are former civilian law enforcement (usually SWAT). Some are just other agents who tried out. You have to be excellent, but you don't have to do all this distraction nonsense. Same is true for other agencies.
Question: Is it possible for one to become an HRT member without prior millitary or law enforcement experience? (So long as you are a special agent and fit all of the other requirements?)
Besides assessing how an applicant performs under stress, do you think there are any valid reasons for withholding sleep from the applicants? Couldn’t performance under stress be simulated another way?
no better way to cause emotional, physical stress, and mental stress. the other reason they do it because they need to know that if you're in the field for days fighting or at a standoff, you'll be just fine. train how you fight type of thing.
Know video is a bit old but great coverage concerning the unit and open source type stuff. Especially concerning the fact not all members were prior sof, some would say it's all prior sof/sf which isn't the case, since people who may pursue that goal realize they don't need to join a high speed military unit but will be more competitive to get into HRT as a result. Which is where law enforcement experience & a very good degree choice comes into play for those who don't go the high speed mili route.
Good question....officer slots in those forces are far fewer. If someone really wants to be a Navy Seal or Special Forces, it is easier to do so enlisted.
Equivalent to devgru (seal team 6)an A.C.E (C.A.G) (delta) S.E.A.L.S are tier 2 like SF (green berets) just to clarify there all bad ass’s an highly trained but tier 1 units are considered at war 24/7 -365 which allows more funding an that means a lot in that world with this caliber of men basically in sports there the all star team
The FBI HRT and the various law enforcement teams are different in that military teams are not supposed to be used in the US. They operate under different ROE entirely. I can see HRT, but we have too many swat/specialized teams in law enforcement generally.
@@federallawenforcementcaree9900 ya man posi coma tatis we talked before sry i didn’t see this message i agree in some cases i also understand a lot of from being on a special response team in one of most dangerous communities in U.S Definetly some crack crews an idiots out there that give us all a bad name while they play operator an think about it the wrong way I’m definitely a fence jumper on this topic tho thanks again for given the info u give i love the truth u tell about training an waiting sometimes it takes a year for a 6 second interdiction lol an that’s the only op. some of these people on social media tell these guys that are interested in the community about all the cool stuff but fail to mention the reality
I was planning on going to school just to join the FBI in hopes of joining HRT, but with the FBI being overly political the last 4 years plus their botched involvement with Waco and Ruby Ridge, I decided to look elsewhere. FBI has a lot of revamping to do. Sadly it won't happen in this administration.
Political or not, it doesn’t matter what your political stance is if you want to go into the HRT. All that matters if your willing to get the innocent out of dangerous situations and take down the bad guys.
You shouldn’t decide not to join the HRT because of political reasons. The HRT doesn’t act based on the politics of those in charge, their job is to get your ass to safety, period. If politics were your reason to decline a position in a unit which is involved in 0% of the politics back at the office, you may be better suited elsewhere. And I find it mildly (alarmingly) disappointing that you take Waco and Ruby (yes, I know it was terrible, I know the story) to say that the entirety of this specific unit was not worth it for you. The ones at Waco and Ruby were different people, different agents, and do not represent the HRT or even the FBI. People love to bring these two up, but _never_ bother to consider every successful operation, and the operations they don’t hear about conducted by professionals who work hard to improve themselves and get the job done. This is a team that trains with Tier 1 SOF units, and their success surpasses their failures.
It’s not too hard u could do anything u put your mind too just takes practice start slow (everyone does) work on doin it right (fundamentals are key to success) start by walking the block then running from (telephone) pole to pole an then go fair ther every week an faster if u get 1% better every week by end of month you’ll b it a much better place
The Mountain Tactical Institute has a great work out preparation program for those that are interested in going through selection.
What's the information for the preparation is there a website or app?
Idk, my time in the army I’ve tried plenty of times for special ops type stuff. They definitely don’t look for the most fit guy. They look for the right guy. The “perfect” score person sure is chosen, but that’s not always the case.
I was not a prior special operator but I was able to get into the Tactical Recruiting Program. I was just in the infantry.
Congratulations brother. I’m an 11B too. Did you get a degree when you got out?

@@jamesmerone international affairs.
I’m doin same thing
Operation Wrath of God was a unique operation that helped with the creation of all these LEO specialized units. Again great video!
Thanks
This man is the reason. If you know, you know.
Navy Seals are technically Tier 2. DEVGRU (Seal Team 6) are the only Navy Seals that are a Tier 1 unit similar to the Army’s Delta force or Ranger Reconnaissance Company (a smaller sized Tier 1 unit from 75th Ranger regiment)
Navy SEALS are not law enforcement - Tier systems do not translate to military unconventional warfare units.
Preach!
@jonnysrevenge he is correct wdym
@jonnysrevenge they are tier 1 for a reason my guy
@jonnysrevenge noone said they were the same dude simply said they all do similar ops which is true. The only proof you gonna get is the fact that they are tier 1 units and there missions are highly classified.
Great video once again, very informative 💪.
I feel stupid and I’m not so good in school but soon hopefully I can study and train hard for HRT
Lots of government jobs I can pick up with right education and physical abilities
Keep going
Great video as always. Very interesting team. In the vein of tactical teams, I would like to see a video on SOG if possible.
Thanks
SOG yes!

The CIA being one such agency.
If enjoy something like this, but I can’t swim
The New York state Police had the same reasoning when they made their Special Response Team way back during the Olympics at Lake Placid.
I’m going to be honest, I’m not cut for this unit tbh. I can probably make it as an special agent and be happy as that.
There are plenty of other special units in other Fed agencies that are just as great that may be more realistic for you to join.
Neither am I.

Helicopter is a separate unit entirely. Most are prior military, but you do not need to be in HRT to be a helicopter pilot for them.
Also, the pathway of joining the military to get to HRT is completely unecessary. Many are former military. Many are former civilian law enforcement (usually SWAT). Some are just other agents who tried out. You have to be excellent, but you don't have to do all this distraction nonsense. Same is true for other agencies.

Having to get a perfect score is not accurate. Do well for sure. But to max it is unreasonable and not the reality.
