Abstract

Ron Guntz, Commander of recruiting for Israel's Special Forces, had been instructed by his superiors to evaluate the process by which he selected solders for its 20-month long training program. Was the Army conducting this process in an ideal manner? The case examines the Special Forces training in light of the types of missions soldiers are expected to execute and asks students to consider whether the Special Forces recruitment and training process identifies the best possible candidates for future Special Forces service.
