Yea, it is surprising that they fly everyone out to Coronado before making cuts though. Good thing about BUD/s is all you have to do is survive three weeks a long day and you are through Hell Week and into the "Training phase" instead of "selection phase".

You got any good tips for treading water? Is it more about practice or technique? I've done some treading with arms out of the water but I need to get better.
