Military Free-Fall School

Jasonkwe, I understand your thinking behind reverting my edit that added the Military Free-Fall School (MFFS) to the list. If you want to keep it focused on Special Forces only training, then we need to remove the Special Forces Underwater Operations Course link as well for it too is addended by Rangers and even select cadets, not just Special Forces soldiers assigned to a dive ODA. This is true for the Military Free Fall School as well.

@McChizzle Ahh, I see what you mean. I don't want to make this personal at all, I honestly just was not sure about the reasons for inclusion. I did add the SF Underwater Operations page in the navbox but, to be honest, I have had second thoughts about its inclusion. The reason I included it in the first place was for its discussion of SF specific underwater operations, not necessarily for the school. But the article itself is not that great and is unfocused IMO.

Anyway, I had just meant to try to keep the SF navbox related to stuff that is specifically SF to keep it from getting unfocused. I just felt that opening the navbox to commonly attended schools/trainings rather than core ones, like you said, that are SF specific (dunno if there are any that will ONLY admit SF and none others) or schools that are mandatory for SF, might be a slippery slope that leads to inclusion of all sorts of other vaguely related articles that kinda dilutes the focus of the navbox itself, you know? Look forward to hearing back from you. I apologize in advance if I don't reply immediately as I'm kinda patchy on my wiki activity lately.
