#10 Once they make the B team, they can start training to move up to the A's. A quick way to leverage the skills of the A team, and also those who don't quite cut it... yet. Have fun, guys!

#11 That is PRECISELY what will take place TW. Those who cannot make it thru SAS A&S (assessment and seletion) will automatically be posted to the..... SF Support Group. That way they can still contribute and sharpen their skills and tradecraft.
