Alright, shit got called out on that quick. Let me know if I still fail to make the standard.

Names Mike, enlisted in National Guard in 98, was influenced by a couple of my high speed drill sergeants who were Ranger qualified, but that always seemed more a dream than reality as slots for any schools were tough to find at that time (in the guard).
I moved up in ranks to CPL, moved to NJ. My CO told me if I commissioned that I could go to Ranger school. That was all the motivation I needed. Went through OCS and IOBC, then on to the NG Pre ranger school (I beleive one of the instructors is a member here). Moved on to school, got to attend the "Bonus round" in both Darby and Florida, and finally graduated with class 09-05. Since then, done a few other schools, and trying to enjoy myself during my platoon time (unfortunately running out).
That is about it, so the long and short of it is that i have been in the Army for 8 years, and the only thing worth discussing is TRADOC. Thats a bit depressing. hopefully that will be resolved soon.

Rangers, I hope this is up to the standard, if just let me know and I will start knocking em out.

I then asked the Lord: "Why was there only one set of footprints?"

I recycled twice, but not the same event/phase. Mountains was my favorite phase, because it was the only one I didn't do twice. :evil:

So yeah, bolo'd twice, but once in darby, and once in florida.
Someone can correct me if I am wrong, but you could about recycle RS indefenitely if you didn't double no-go the same thing right?

I know there was a student I did Florida twice with, that did it his third time when I did my second. And he never failed patrols. (SOR/SPOT trouble)
