Any of ya in the National Guard lrrps unit in Macon, Ga.?

Postby rangerdudeleads » December 26th, 2005, 11:45 pm

I just signed up and was just curious to what I will expect my first day there..Im getting back into running shape and hopefully I can get back to shape like I was when I was In Batt. I was told they are the most high speed National Guard unit in Ga. so that pumped me up to join plus the fact that I get to jump again. Being a father to 3 kids has made me neglect PT for the last 6 months and Im so out of running shape it isnt even funny. I would really appreciate it if of any of ya can give me info on that unit cause I would like to learn more about them beofre i report there. I have looked everywhere to try to read up on them but no info on the internet.

Thanks
Charles

During my short tenure (3-years) in a LRSC, I found the idea of running away from the bad guys absolutely reprehensible!

hmmm that motto must have gone into effect after I left :D
I guess if we had needed a motto for COLT before we got rolled into RRD it would have been "Why look at shit like a peeping tom when you can blow it up" :twisted:

The company was in Newnan, GA. Across from the high school, if you've ever been there. Expect about four months in the Green Platoon, if they still do that; where you'll learn LRS techniques and tactics, as well as the unit's SOPs and equipment.

Running was good...especially if you got caught hiding..and the bad guys had you outnumbered 10:1....Those guys tend to come out of the woodwork. The best part was hiding and not getting caught but shit happens..
