Best Answer

In order to become a Special Forces officer you must be a 1st Lieutenant promotable or a Captain already. Once you have attained either rank, you must volunteer for Special Forces training. The training starts with Phase I SFAS (Special Forces Assessment and Selection) this phase is considered the thoughest one of many. If you get selected, you will continue on to the SFQC (Special Forces Qualification Course) and if you meet the standards for every phase ( a total of 5 phases) you will graduate as a Special Forces Captain and will be assigned to one of the 7 Special Forces Groups where you will have a chance to be the team leader for a SFODA (Special Forces Operational Detachment Alpha)

Can you become an Air Force Combat Rescue Officer form the Air Force Academy?

Yes, although the selection is extremely difficult. There are three "Special Forces" jobs available for Air Force Academy graduates, Special Tactics Officer, Air Liaison Officer, and Combat Rescue Officer. Cadets who aspire to get into one of these jobs are oftentimes seen at the Academy pushing themselves to their breaking point just to do it again and again as soon as they recover, as all three are extremely difficult physically. High Academic performance is also desired for those who seek these jobs.
