My Old Pard 'GovtPacker' was an outfitter at Yosemite and a civilian contracter at Bridgeport. If a Marine didn't get efficient at packin and jerkin mules under the salty watch of that ole hand, they weren't coachable.

A little legal tip for your future military career. Never say, "With all due respect," then fail to give the respect due. It's an admission of guilt which will be brought up at the Office Hours or Court-Martial you will get. It's sea lawyer crap.
You really need to work on your grammar, spelling, and punctuation. That would help make your written communication less confusing to others.

Now to answer your very straight forward question. Recon people do indeed go to MWS as it would be a critical aspect of their skill sets.
When I went to MWS in 1975, Recon people essentially ran the mountain warfare part -rappelling, rock climbing, etc. My unit had a Force Recon type as our personal instructor who was a certifiable nut-case. He was like a mountain goat and we loved him. Great ropes instructor.

And to keep your from answering a bunch of "If i make recon do we go do this?" questions. Your answer will 99% of the time be yes if it is dealing with a special school.

Yes i bet laying on the ice is very cold. I had a sergeant tell me one time while i was running with him, he said that the cold, it was all in my mind. I think it is.

The best thing Boot can teach a Marine is to place the mind in a state of "bullet proof" allow to absorb the uncomfortable and painful understanding that it is only a thing and it shall pass. You should learn to embrase this concept because it is the building block for most of your spec training ie MWF, JEST, E & E and Pow training all use this technique. Remember this later on when times are tough because again this too shall pass. Good Luck to you ttracker65
