Hello Again

Post by Dud »

It's been a while since I've been on here and felt the need to introduce myself again. I was on here and AirborneRanger for a while back in 2002 to 2006 or so. I had some decent ties to Earthpig, Bell, and Spartan, among others. For those of you who were on back then, I was the the kid who was "permanently" disqualified due to Radial Keratotomy eye surgery and with the support and advice of many Rangers of the board found a way to bitch and moan my way into the Army. I've done a tour in Iraq with the 506th out of Campbell, still with them, and home on leave right now from A-stan. Anywho, just wanted to put the feelers back out there and see who is still around. I saw the post about Ranger Spartan and am damn sorry to hear he passed. I had alot of good conversations with him and he gave me some great advice, probably wouldn't be where I am today without some of those talks. Hope this finds yall well, Godbless

Ranger JLTW,
Roger, I'm a 11B. I'd say I'm a "leg" but I suppose my company makes me more of a "wheel" sometimes. And thanks to all who replied, it's good to see ya'll still around here.
