Intro Slipaway

[slipaway]

I just graduated Ranger School class 11-12 and I'm headed to 2SBCT 25th ID. We're deploying in the next 8-10 months last I heard so I'm doing my best to prep and get as much knowledge and info as possible through this site.

How do I go about verifying my credentials as Ranger qualified?

I'm honored to be a part of this community.

For some reason my first try didn't work so here's number 2:

I recently graduated Ranger School class 11-12 and I'm headed back to 2SBCT 25th ID to (hopefully) be a PL for our future deployment to Afghanistan. I'm honored to be a part of this community and to learn as much as I can to make myself a better Ranger leader.

How do I go about verifying my credentials as Ranger Qualified if that is even necessary?

.......edited to add both threads....

Welcome, Slipaway. In addition to Ranger, did you get the Stryker course? First things, first please tell us more about yourself. Where did you go to school? Are you branched Infantry? I hope you take advantage of the information on the site about being a Platoon Leader. That's the best job a combat arms Lieutenant can possibly get. There is a wealth of information here.

Ranger Jim, I was lucky enough to get the Stryker course while at Benning, very good training, along with IMLC and of course Airborne. I also did the basic mountaineering course at the Mountain Warfare School in VT as a cadet. I commissioned out of UNC-Chapel Hill and I am branched Infantry.

From what I've heard I will be walking into a Platoon as soon as I get to Hawaii so I'm excited to have the best job an Infantry LT could ask for and I'm reading as much as I can on this site and elsewhere to make sure I'm ready to be the leader my PLT deserves.
