Introduction-Jordan

Post by minitech11x »

Hello Rangers,

Thank you for your service and the information this site has to offer. My name is Jordan XXXX. I am 25 years old. I went to an automotive tech school and recieve an associates degree. I have worked on cars the last 4 years, but that wasn't for me. I have signed with an 11X contract, I unfortunately had a medical waiver and wasn't able to get the doc at meps to sign for an airborne stamp. My goal is to become a ranger and possibly SF one day. While testing myself i am able to get 75 pushups, 85 situps, and 13:30 on the 2 mile run. I will be taking an APFT on Sept. 23 with my recruiter, which i should have improved since i tested myself. I ship out Oct. 5. Im hopeing to get airborne and possibly RASP while in basic but i was looking at bennings web site and its looking like all the airborne class's for FY11 are almost full, so who knows what will happen. Ive just been counting down the days since i signed my contract and now only 3 weeks left.


don't put your full name on here. the military calls it PERSEC, personal security.

You should prep those responses with the title Ranger.... as in Ranger KW Driver, Ranger al_2ndWolfhounds. These men are warriors and not you neighbor. Respect is a two way street and you're driving into on coming traffic high speed.
