Done

Rangers,

I graduated today at Victory Pond! Did a 26 day recycle in FL before hitting the swamps X 2.

Great experience overall.

I'll post Pics when I have the chance.

Take it easy,

Update

Rangers, I am now on my 8 hour pass and have just completed the Benning phase of Ranger School. I'll move out to the mountains tomorrow. All of your advice has helped greatly.

I'll have a few days go get used to the pretty big temp and humidity change (it's about 45 degrees with a very low humidity at Drum right now) and then I'll begin RS on Monday 26 MAY 08. If an...

Reporting to RS 26 MAY 08. Some RAP questions?

Rangers, Will report to the 26 MAY 08 Ranger School Course. Leaving from my post to GA on the 20th. I’m excited and ready to go. However, to say that I’m not the least bit worried would be a flat out lie. I’m most concerned with the initial RPFT. Why? Because statistically, as I have learned, ...
