and the rumour mill begins...

Post by Cayo »

Rangers,
Just got back from holiday block leave and processed into airborne hold at midday. The RASP rumour mill is churning out interesting rumours left and right already.

People are already talking about dropping their rasp contracts.

I sit alone and quietly smile, enjoying the slow creeping madness that is beginning to set in. Man it is nice to be back at training.

Happy new year,
Alex

Don't harbor the weak. Don't trust them, either. In fact, just stay away from them alltogether. Good luck.

It is very important that you stay focused on YOUR mission. Stay single minded and
don't worry the other guys. Many people will not make the cut and fall to the way
side . . . Don't worry about anyone ( at this point ) else. Continue the mission!!!!

Every class that has a break for Christmas loses a bunch. Guys go home, taste that sweet poon again, and they lose focus. Priorities change like the weather on Mt. Everest.

It took about 6 months for mine to show up, and it was the best thing that could have happened.
