Intro

Post by Torker »

Hi,

I was at C 2/75 during 77-79. I started in 3rd platoon (Portis), later was in 1st platoon (Mattoon) . I was RS 7/78.
I could say more, but apparently I'm not even on Reid's porch.

I've been on the road a lot over the years and would like to recontact some buddies, maybe make some new ones, refresh my memories of those years, talk with some fellow rangers about their experiences then and afterwards, and discuss current geopolitical affairs from a strategic and intelligence viewpoint.

Welcome Torker. Someone will be along and send you a Packet. In the interim, Im the site Pastor and if you need Prayer of anything like that, Im the wrong Mother Fucker for that. :lol:
RS Class # 7-76

I'm not the way I am because I was a Ranger - I was a Ranger because of the way I am.

Other people were fine and you liked them and were good friends; but you only felt true tenderness and love for those who had been there and had received the castigation that everyone receives who goes there long enough."
