Thanks Rangers. Since joining this unit I've had the good fortune to work for many experienced Rangers, many with 10 + deployments. I find myself talking to my fiancee about one Ranger or another, and every single time saying "I'd love to be the leader he is". The drive regularly displayed by every man around me pushes me to go above and beyond what I thought I could do, on a daily basis. I'm honored to be here among you, and I'm enthusiastically looking forward to the future of slaying any Mother%$#&er that would threaten my sons way of life. Again, thank you for the welcome Rangers.

Damn. Five posts in 18 months, two of them today. You are the poster boy for "Read much - post little". Apparently that served you well.
Welcome back Ranger! This is a place you can seek professional guidance without having to show your ass to your own CoC.
Glad to have you back, now pay it forward.

The way I became a Ranger and have earned the small amount of success I have had in life has been mostly due to one quality - determination. Lefty.

Welcome back and congratulations, Ranger. 1st Batt was the home of many a great Ranger, including many members of certain High-speed 'Detachments' and a number of Best Ranger winners, so do it proud and live the Creed every day. I wish I had this site when I was a cherry.... Understand that Sua Sponte is now your life long motto, not just some Hooah shit you did a million pushups for. Best of luck at Batt and beyond (and be careful what you tell your girl, ladies can be chatty, just sayin' :lol: ).

Now go beat your face for a while.... Rock On, Ranger
