Between Phases

Three phases and 62 days of hell. This section named in honor of MAJ John Whyte who was taken from us on 04/17/05.

Between Phases

Postby blueskiesalways » July 13th, 2012, 8:49 am

Just heard from the the kid who's on an 8 hrs pass between Ranger School phases.

Sounds like he's pretty squared away. Picked up some nasty skin infection from the heat and humidity :mrgreen: but feels fine.
He said they lost quite a few early due to PT...That seems odd, since you would think they would kill that...Anyway, fingers crossed he'll make it straight through the next phase...Also, he's going through with one of our others parents (AtlDan) son. Good luck to them both!

So, fingers crossed. On the 24th ,I will have the honor of watching my former 1st Batt. Ranger pin the tab to his younger 3rd Batt. brother. It's going to hard not to tear jerk that one :D
