The U.S. Marshals Service's Special Operations Group (SOG) conducts the 2024 Selection Course, a multi-month training process to evaluate USMS deputies, or candidates chosen to attend, on becoming members of the SOG team. Candidates undergoing selection endure a physically and mentally demanding process designed to assess their suitability for high-risk operations. The selection course includes rigorous physical fitness tests such as push-ups, sit-ups, a timed run, pull-ups, swimming, rucking and an obstacle course. Candidates also undergo advanced shooting assessments, tactical training, and written exams administered by SOG cadre covering various topics from communication, weapons handling and team tactics. The course is conducted under high-stress conditions to simulate real-world scenarios, testing each candidates’ ability to remain focused, make quick decisions, and work effectively in teams. The 24/7 monitored selection process is challenging, with strict standards and evaluations, aiming to identify individuals who demonstrate the necessary skills, resilience, and determination to become effective team members.
