Is there a primary home duty station for SEALs like there is for SF (Bragg)?

SF training is at Bragg, but that is not the "home" base of the Army SF.
Different groups are stationed at different bases throughout the U.S.

SPC (Join to see) Can't help you there. No experience with any CA or Psyops guys outside of the few I ran into on Bragg.
FWIW, the option 4 (ABN) added to an MOS gives pretty good odds of being in Bragg, if that is a deciding factor for you.

Yeah I realize that. Congrats to you by the way for getting the tab. I fully intend to go airborne if i qualify. Unfortunately, I had ACL surgery in High school, and my recruiter isnt confident they will let me go without a waiver, which would disqualify me from airborne as i understand it.

SPC (Join to see) You don't get a tab for ABN, just the badge.
If you can't pass an ABN physical because of your injury, then you cannot get an 18X contract anyway. Maybe not SEAL either, but I don't know how the Navy handles all of that.
I went to BAC with a guy who had a waiver for a shoulder issue from his childhood. He was able to get an Option 40 contract, so it can be done. That is a case-by-case situation. Full disclosure: he didn't make it past the APFT because his injury limited his ability to lockout his pushups the way the black hats required.

SPC (Join to see) - CA and PSYOP are also trained at Bragg. Most of the CA world is on the reserve side which is by design so there is no place they're primarily based.
