SITREP - Andrew
Rangers, I am currently at the MEPS hotel. I've been spending the last month working out, but more importantly, spending time with all of my family and friends.

Re: All Of You Future Rangers Read This
Ranger IntelToad, I wanted to add a couple extra things I've noticed from the dozens of hours I spent reading SITREPS this school year, and the shorter ones I went back and read, having previously skipped them for only being a couple posts long. 1) Take care of yourself. In particular, IvoryCharlie'...

Re: Introduction - Andrew
I like it Andrew... minus the ripping of the hands. That is something you never get used to... just happened to me Monday on the o-course... Electric tape is great to get you through, just put something over the cut to make sure you don't rip off what you are healing. Also, I am not a doctor either...

Re: Introduction - Andrew
90 days from shipping those are excellent numbers. Glad you are never satisfied. Keep working hard... physical fitness isn't good for the military, it's good for life. Until you have a heart attack at age 40-something because of genetics... then, well, you're shit out of luck. Roger, Ranger Disinfe...

Re: Introduction - Andrew
All things in life is what you make of it. I'd be wise to take my own advice with that on many levels. Many of us stumbled through RIP/RASP with nothing more than a swift kick in the ass, some not even that. If we can enable a smarter generation to self develop and push themselves... not only is th...

I talked to a couple of the Mentees, and they agreed to push through their updates as soon as possible. I will finish up my final update before the end of the month, as well.
