Shipping Out

Well, the time has finally come. I leave for Fort Benning tomorrow. I would like to thank all the Rangers and Soldiers of this site who have put together a stock pile of information for anyone wanting to learn more about the military. I will give SITREPs whenever I have any free time.
Thanks again ...
