Yes, It is true. At this time Non-Prior Service (NPS) are the only ones participating in the Special Warfare Prep Course. However, you may be able to work with your recruiter and see if it is possible to Enter Active Duty a few weeks prior to your official start date. Hopefully, this would allow you to spend some time with the Cadre/Wing Developers before you begin your course.

@David Overton Crazy, but thank you for the quick reply. I know the navy gives everyone a spot at BUD/S prep, so I figured the Air Force would definitely do the same. Do you see them making this change in the future?

@brendxn Possibly but, I would recomend that you continue to maximize your time now and get in the best shape possible before you leave. Be sure to communicate with your Developer/Recruiter and attend as many PAST and Developmental sessions as you can.

With the right paperwork and initial outlay, it is possible for a foreign citizen to open a bank account in Japan. This opportunity for international accounts and investments offers several advantages based on economic regulations and tax structures. Interest rates, tax laws, and fees vary depending on the specific country in which you are investing; careful research and strategic financial moves could result in significant portfolio growth. http://www.confiduss.com/en/jurisdictions/japan/business/bank-account-opening/
