I'm being told that a 20 year special forces person has no need to train once he/she is out of the service. Is this true? (This is a guy on a dating site who hit me up today.)
I guess if you don't carry a gun, or don't like to shoot, or don't shoot....you have no need to "train"? But it's sounding like he thinks his skills are just going to stay like they were, so he has no need to shoot every now and then.
** And before we get all nuts like on another of my training threads, let's just keep to the actual topic and not go astray. You military guys/girls, tell me what your experience is in all this. You can answer "for a friend" if you want to.
So: Perishable skill, or once you got the skill you keep it, and have no need to train?
*EDIT:
Thanks to all you military people for past and present service. Forgot to add that before!
