I haven't reported back since I shipped out for the Army in June, so this post is overdue. Since then, I completed Basic in October, had a blast during Airborne school and graduated from Charlie Company on Nov. 18th, and just graduated today from RIP class 03-06 with 29 other guys.

I will be leaving for OSUT tomorrow. This site has been an outstanding source of information for me. Thanks to all the Rangers and veterans for their great input.
