Re: Introduction - Stephen

Rangers, Today I did my first real ruck in several months. I did roughly 4.4 miles (flat, paved) in 1 hour with a 25 lb. ruck. I was surprised because I wasn’t even trying that hard, just a brisk walk. I have not been to the recruiting office since my last post, but I plan on starting the enlistment...

I called and emailed 75th Ranger Recruiting about what my recruiters told me regarding Option 40 contracts. All I was told is that I can volunteer at OSUT. I also DMed @75_ranger_recruiting on Instagram a...

Re: Introduction - Stephen

Thank you Wazzle and Ranger Lunch. I live on Long Island, suburban area about an hour from NYC. Like you stated Wazzle, I've been told that it shouldn't be difficult to get a RASP slot at OSUT, but I will definitely do my best to obtain an Opt. 40. If I must wait a year, I will make the most of it a...

Re: Introduction - Stephen

Rangers, I have a good amount of updates. Firstly, my parents and I went to the recruiting office today, mainly to answer any questions my parents had. It was my third time, my mom's second time and my dad's first time there. We met with two recruiters, one of whom is a former 1st Batt infantryman a...

Re: Introduction - Stephen

Thank you for the reply Ranger Disinfertention, I recently told my parents about my desire to join the 75th Ranger Regiment. My mom is worried (of course) but overall accepting of it. My dad thinks I am too close-minded and that I should keep my options open, especially because I have good grades. H...

Introduction - Stephen

I have been to my local recruiting station twice and told them my intention is to enlist with an 11X Option 40 contract.
