About the Memoir
Some memories fade with time. Others stay with you forever.
In August 1990, I arrived at Camp Mackall as Roster Number 68 with one goal: to make it through Special Forces Assessment and Selection.
This memoir is not a training manual, an official guide, or a how-to book. It is a personal account of one soldier’s experience during SFAS and Team Week, written more than three decades later with the perspective that only time can provide.
The Second Revised Edition has been cleaned up, reformatted, and expanded with improved context while preserving the original experience and voice.

Why I Wrote It
I wrote this memoir because some experiences stay with you whether you talk about them or not.
SFAS was one of those experiences. It was short in time, but long in memory. The lessons, the people, the pressure, and the unanswered questions stayed with me long after I left Camp Mackall.
This book is my attempt to preserve that story honestly.
Final Thoughts
Not every story ends the way we imagined. Some stories matter because of what they teach us after the outcome is already decided.
The Week That Never Ends is one of those stories.
Historical Documentation
As part of preserving this memoir, I’ve included my original SFAS certificate from 1990. It serves as a historical record of my participation in Special Forces Assessment and Selection and is shared to accompany the story told in this memoir.
