Re: recommended for drop

Rangers, My apologies for not posting a SITREP sooner, but I wanted to wait until I had something worth posting besides having gotten dropped. I've been here in WW for a week now, and have been fighting the best I can to get back in the course before they cut me a set of orders. It has been done bef...

Re: recommended for drop

Why are you posting this in here? Attention to detail stud. The 1st Sgt and CO trust their NCO's that make the recommendations, they don't need to speak to you about anything. Did you do your peers yet? Have you been helping others with everyday tasks'? 100% and then some? In all honesty, you've be...

recommended for drop

I knew I wasn't doing as well as I expected ( I failed 3/10 events. One of the iterations of land nav, one ruck march, and the first GST) but there's plenty of guys way worse off than I am that haven't even popped up on anyone's radar so this kick in the balls came from way out in left field. From w...

Things I learned at Cole Range

Just got back on thursday. Never felt that grateful to be that miserable. Then I just felt miserable. we're down to 82/144 The cool thing is comparing and contrasting final ruck march hallucinations after the fact. However many socks you plan on you bringing, you wont have enough. If you do have eno...

Re: Random thought of the moment.

Always pick the big kid when you have do a buddy carry up cardiac hill. Everyone else will thank you for it, and it'll cover up the fact that you're slow as shit due to being winded from the run 8)

Re: Pre RASP Tips

Did you graduate Airborne? When do you start RASP? Ranger Jim, I graduated Jump School last friday. Can't believe I did'nt think to post a SITREP. PreRASP is awesome. The PT is actually challenging, for the first time since I enlisted. Not sure if I can post exact dates becuase of opsec, We dont pi...

penrose drains?

Being the only medic, I by default get the platoon CLS bag, which I open to find peroxide, band aides, a sam splint, and a lifetime supply of penrose drains. Now, back at the schoolhouse the only time they mentioned the use of these things where for post-op care on major surgeries. Is there another ...

Re: SITREP

I'm curious as to how you know your DS's are RIP/SFAS washouts as you put it. And how that is a fortunate thing for you. Have times changed that much that they speak so freely about personal failures with young Privates just starting AIT? I disagree with your assessment on the shitbags in your clas...
