Download. 3d gamer's/file planet's a good choice.... though the latter you have to register, I think.

edit: My second SF training is still not done. gah.

Yeah, same here... don't you just love being restricted to the AK-74, RPK, and RPG during Ranger and SF missions? $\:D/$ I hate iron-sights.

The second SF training is hard but if you try hard (and smart), you can get it.

Or you could cheat and use a walkthrough like I did. Once you get through it once, you can do a perfect speedrun in about 15 minutes.
