800's are for SEAL, SWCC, EOD, and AIRR; 900's are a mixed bag from all rates that are hand selected to be the best of the group of incoming recruits aside from 800 divisions. 900's encompass Triple Threat which does singing, band, and color guard (spinning rifles), State Flags which carry the flags of every state at graduation as well as provide the marching on and off of the colors and the guards that escort the colors, and Staff divisions are focused on marching and rendering military honors as well as providing the drill inspection team for graduation. Triple Threat is chosen for musical abilities only; State Flags and Staff are selected for military bearing, intelligence, military appearance, and ability to pass exams, PFA's, Swim Qual, etc. 900's are a lot more work and regularly outperform all other divisions in all areas (except physical fitness when there's an 800 division in the grad group). 800's are also a lot of physical work, but those aren't hand selected, those are based on rate. All other "regular" ("rifleland") divisions are just a mixed bag of recruits and that's about it.
