Re: Introduction - Steve
Welcome, Steve. Please tell us more about yourself. Where do you go to school? Being detailed combat arms is a good way to begin your career. You want to complete Ranger School as soon as possible. I spent a lot of time on the Army Staff, and it was not unusual to see AG officers with a Ranger Tab....

Re: Introduction - Steve
Are you a Star Wars fan? What is the origin of your screen name? Ranger rangertough, Yes I am actually a huge Star Wars nerd. 4_LOM has been a tag I've used for certain things named after the robot bounty hunter 4_LOM (4 Love of Money).
