Well since they are shutting down the usara fb page for open discussion, which is ironic since it's a closed group, I went looking and found a new place to shoot the shit.

Welcome, Josh. Please tell us more about yourself. You should feel at home as there are a good number of Rangers on the site. We need you to get verified as quickly as you can. Everyone who has Ranger on their avatar has been verified as having served in a Ranger unit or graduating from Ranger School.

After I got out in 06 I started truck driving. Then I made a mistake and joined the reserves; reclassing from infantry to mechanic. That was a joke, never received Mos training (not for lack of trying) and got released to inactive status after 3 years.

I worked in nuclear power as a health physics tech for 6 years and I currently work as an engine tuner.

Welcome. A Mod or Admin will send you a verification packet to fill out via PM. The process does take time unless you personally know or served with one of us here that can vouch for you so be patient, we like to make sure to a thorough job vetting folks to keep the house clean from BS.
