Hello,
My name is Connor and I am 18 years old. I am going to college for at least a year as I promised my parents but have already started talking to a recruiter about an Option 40 contract. I look forward to receiving tips and mentorship by Rangers and would like to get to know everybody.
-Thank you

Re: Introduction
Im sorry about the weak introduction as I didn't know what else to add. As I said I'm going to college for a year before I make any final decisions as my parents requested as they hope that I will enjoy college and change my mind. I realize that it is ultimately my choice and my life but will respect the wishes of my parents as they are paying for college. Though college seems like a good time I feel that nothing is more honorable then serving your country and even more specifically joining the Ranger Regiment. I have a LONG way to go and realize that but my current fitness test results are
Pushups: 55
Sit-ups: 56
1.5 mile run: 11:00
Thank you Rangers.

Re: Introduction
Welcome to the site, young man.
Your ambition is worthy, but you have much to learn. As Ranger Jim has told you, you need to read all of the threads available to you before asking any questions.
Where are you located?

Re: Introduction
The standard APFT standards are two minutes of push-ups and sit-ups; and a two mile timed run. However, you now have established a PT baseline, so you can measure your progress. Never, never quit!Scarr45 wrote:Pushups: 55

Re: Introduction
Thank you Rangers. Ranger Lefty, I am located in Dayton Ohio but will soon be in Bowling Green Ohio for College.
Re: Introduction
Bowling Green is a good school, you have done well to have been admitted. Please understand that this is a unique website. Everyone who has the honorific Ranger has been verified as a graduate of the Ranger Course or has served in the 75th Ranger Regiment. Never, never quit!Scarr45 wrote:Thank you Rangers.
