Hi, my name is Josh. I am 22 years old, I have a high school diploma and 39 college credits. I'm in a construction union where I install glass curtain walls and windows.
It took me a while to get an option 40, but I finally received a 25c contract with option 40. I am going to MEPS next week to take my ASVAB, physical, and to sign. I ship out on Oct. 19th to Fort Leonard Wood. I am here to listen and learn.

Hi Josh,
Welcome to the boards. I'm also new here (see: post count).
First, I see that you're 22. word. Second, nice avatar, was that a personal touch or was it one of the choices? Good luck with everything!

Still round the corner, there may wait,
A secret road, or a hidden gate,
And though I oft have passed them by,
A day shall come at last when I,
Will take the hidden paths that run,
West of the moon, East of the sun!

Re: Introduction - Josh
Welcome. Your desire to serve our country as an Army Ranger is appreciated. Post again when you have a signed contract so I can congratulate you. In the meantime, take a PT test and post your results in this thread.
WE NEED MORE RANGERS!

Re: Introduction - Josh
You have some PT to do. You need those sit-ups and push-ups to be in the 80-plus range and for that run to more like 12 minutes. Lucky for you, you have a few months time to get in better shape. That time will go by quicklly. Do not waste it. Check out the PT forum on this site.jdouglas40 wrote:Ranger Bill, here are my PT results:
