I think part of it too is that when that lady hiker (I'm afraid I don't recall her name but her trail handle was Inchworm) wandered off the Appalachian Trail and vanished, The Bollard wrote some sketchy stories that tried to insinuate that the school had something to do with her disappearance, and by the way did you know the military is bad?
Tragically, they found her remains some months later; she had gotten lost in the woods and died.

If you want to mingle with some SERE students being squirrelly go hang out in Spokane, WA.

A lot of people just making up random shit in here to try and fear monger
It’s a military school. There will be plenty of signs telling you to keep out. That’s it.

Exactly. Some people got to lazy nowadays to turn their heads around but have no problems looking down at their cell phones hours a day

In and around Cherryfield the wild blueberry barrens are owned by commercial berry harvesters and you can get in trouble for stealing from them.
That being said you can find wild blueberries along many of the dirt “logging roads” in that area, but probably not in August.
Grand Lake Stream is a fishing Mecca. Hire a guide and you’ll have a good time.

If you’re in Naples I’d probably book someone out of North Conway. Plenty of options there.

It's funny reading some of these comments though. People think some military guy going through SERE is going to go ape shit on some random person or that you're going to get snatched up by some dudes in black vans. It isn't Area 51, you can google SERE and find plenty of information on it.
I got offered a SERE school slot once (not the one in Maine though) because our unit had extra seats to send people. I passed on it, but had some coworkers who volunteered for it. After talking to them when they got back I was glad I decided to stay in Germany and enjoy my weekends off.

Honestly it was awesome. My senior year prom theme was Jones soda. Pictures that had been taken the year were blown up in black and white and different color neon lights were everywhere. The LCSers made fun of us a little but honestly we were a little too stuck up and dismissing of them the way teenagers can be. I think one local kid was there when I was.
I have some classmates that are high up in Google/Microsoft/Apple but a lot of us are in normal jobs, I’m a database admin for a nonprofit. Many life long friends.
