Recently retired SSG with 20 under my belt. Assigned to 160th SOAR from 1997-2006 as a Flight Engineer on the mighty MH-47 helicopter. I'm a 5 jump chump but feel I earned my beret completing Jump School. I'm quite certain I have delivered you and your fellow Rangers to your training/combat objectives over those years. Some missions quite memorable others just another ride in/out.
I have a son who has grown up and has become quite interested in becoming more than a member of the military. He wants to be a Ranger. I fully support his goal and have joined here to help him gain greater insight into what lies ahead. Once he has made the final commitment I will encourage him to join the forum. I have already gathered quite a bit of intel here to pass along to him. I have already imparted to him the importance of his decision and the true commitment he is about to make. I truly respect the commitment and dedication to all those currently serving and those who have served among the Rangers. Thank you for allowing me into your ranks!
NSDQ!!

The way I became a Ranger and have earned the small amount of success I have had in life has been mostly due to one quality - determination. Lefty.

Re: Introduction
Welcome HeavyAssault.
I would like to thank you for your service as I have fond memories of all flight crews & what you have done & especially 4th AVN BN that flew for us many years ago.
Edited to change AVN BN from 122nd to 4th. Thank you Ranger Bill for helping me remember correctly.
