Introduction

Post by rgrokelley »

Howdy,
My buddy, Bert (P*** name deleted, PERSEC violation), told me about this site for years. I decided to finally check it out. I was one of the cadre at the beginning of the 3rd Ranger Battalion. I left there in late 1986 and went to the start of F Company, 51st LRSU in Ludwigsberg, Germany. After that I went to 5th Special Forces Group, ODA 592 (for Desert Storm) and then ODA 586 from 1989 to 1995. I finished my career in 3rd Special Forces Group, ODA 336, from 1997 to 1999.
I am now a Junior ROTC instructor in Sanford, North Carolina.
I'm writing about what happened, and some things are "fuzzy". So I mainly joined up to find answers.

DSOTYR

Howdy,
I've seen DSOTYR on a few posts. What does that stand for? It must be some new Ranger slang, long after my time.

Yeah. What he said. C 2/58, which had two Special Forces, Ranger Senior Drill SGTs, and a CAG, Ranger drill SGT. It was interesting.
