When I was in HS some 20+ years ago, there was an organized food fight in the cafeteria on pizza day. I was a sophomore, and some of the seniors organized the fracas. They had cut the lock off the main breaker for the cafeteria, and had people organized to flip tables up as barricades and begin laun...

Eltrane, yeah, that was the guy who wrote "Charlie Mike" but I don't remember if he wore a rolex or what company we were in. I think our class number was 33-84.

In the most recent issue of Front Sight (the US Practical Shooting Association's magazine) there is a good article on performance of various 5.56mm/.223 loads for Practical Rifle/3 Gun competition with performance listed by barrel length. If you are interested, let me know and I can scan the chart. ...

Ranger Sobersides: Its a cgi robot, kind of like a promo ad for a robotic cop. Its pretty high on the geek factor, the animation is pretty good. It actually looks like the robot is patrolling the slums, getting shot at, returning fire. The robot looks like a character from a Japanese Anime flick cal...

Its about 16MB in Quicktime format. Completely done in CGI and edited into some actual video of some slums in SA.

This one is a GoCart with a GSX-R engine in it.

Good luck LN! Stickpusher is fun, almost as good as door. Our unit used to have this 6'6" CWO nicknamed "Lumpy" that always jumped stickpusher. He would plant one foot against the bulkhead, put both hands on the guy in front, and shove for all he was worth. It really sucked being in t...

Ranger Steadfast: Thanks. :) I bought some books on coaching youth soccer, and whatnot last year. The useful ones were the skill drills, as I realized I learned in PLDC everything I need to know about coaching/leading a group of people (even if they are a bunch of think-I-know-everything 11/12 year ...

Ranger Slowpoke: Not that close, we live in N. Albany in Benton Co. My brother-in-law and some shooting friends work there. Hopps, Ranger EarthPig & Ranger Steadfast: Thanks. The little one has given us a couple of good scares, he has SVT, and is on daily meds to prevent it from recurring. He's ...

Ranger Spartan: The pic was for my mom, she and her 3rd husband live in Charleston, he's a RVN vet (25th ID I believe). She sent the boys those shirts, and hasn't been out here to see the little boy but once. I speak English very well (the wife says I have a southern accent though) because I've live...

:D I'm letting my hair grow out until i get to basic, i figure why spend the money to get it cut when i can get it done for free :lol: [ Hopps, they make you pay for your haircuts, at least they did back in 1984 when I went to Basic. Even those guys that got a doorknob cut before they got there had...

Welcome. I sure wish a site like this was available 20+ years ago when I enlisted. I've spent the better part of a week keeping my head down, and reading through all the posts. There is a tremendous amount of valuable information here, and a healthy regimen of proper military bearing and willing men...

About the only thing missing from that picture is Lord Humongous and some leather-clad mohawked freaks.

Man, I thought I had something to offer here, but it was already posted further down from http://www.cavalrypilot.com/101.html The few things I can remember (and not verbatim): Paintball guns are not authorized in the barracks. Shooting bottle rockets into the open windows of the leg artillery batta...

Ranger ron375: I'm pretty much up to speed on the differences. What I seem to have left out of my post was that I have never met anyone that served in the 75th Regiment, just men that had completed the school. After I went DEP in 1983, I went to my recruiter to see if I could change to 11X with anot...

Ranger Spartan, Ranger Luna, Ranger Steadfast, Ranger EarthPig, Ranger ron375, and Ranger h8train2/75: Thank you for welcoming me to this site. I've only met a few tabbed Rangers, my Battery Commander in Basic at Ft. Sill and the Battalion Chaplain were both tabbed. One of my instructors in ROTC at ...
