Re: Four Winds Curse?

There must be a 4-5 year expiration date on the curse: I had a burger there in December 2005, failed Ranger school in August 2006. I didn't touch another one and managed to get my tab in April 2010.

What is a Ranger shirt?

No Scroll under the flag only means no deployment while in Regiment

Re: Fat-Bodied Old Man (Fbom)

Almost everything is waiverable. I was told I was too old in 2005 when I wanted to enlist with an OCS contract, but I got a waiver no problem. If your recruiter tells you that you are too old and that is the end of the story, he is not trying very hard (and if you take no for an answer, neither are ...

Re: RangerRuss Intro

My guess is that one of the moderators is going to give you a big no-go on that introduction (no worries, I got one a year ago also). You need to include more information like your MOS/branch, years of service, units, positions, etc.
Welcome and congrats on getting your tab

Re: ACU replacement after RS

Thank you SupplyRanger! That makes the most sense out of everything I have heard. The other day someone told me that RTB's S-4 gets ACUs for everyone graduating and hands them out before graduation. Each day I get a crazier story on how this happens. I will take this info to my S-4 tomorrow.

Re: Introduction

Ranger Ndog, thanks for the welcome. It looks like we went through the same RS cycles, just 15 years apart. Started bitter cold winter in Benning, ended with 80 degree sunshine spring days in Florida.

Re: ACU replacement after RS

Correction, the reclamation sale on Benning is the first Friday of each month.

Ranger Panthersix, if greens can be described as iron, then ACUs would be tin foil. These things have a life of about 4-6 months, and that is with minimal field time.

Re: ACU replacement after RS

You're talking about the reclamation sale, they still do it here. Last Friday of each month at a warehouse on the northwest side of main post. I plan on going there at the end of May.

Re: Introduction

Not a no-go!!! One more and I may recycle this phase... Sorry about that, here is some more info: I joined at age 30, basic-OCS in '05, IOBC-etc in '06, basic training XO on Benning '07-'08, PL in 1st CAV '08-'09 (luckily 90% of that PL time was while deployed), back to Benning late '09 and straight...

ACU replacement after RS

Rumors during RS were that after you graduate, you take a copy of your certificate to your CIF and they will give you 4 new sets of ACUs and 1 pair of boots. My unit is telling me there is no DX, it is a gratuitous issue and you get 2 sets ACUs and 1 pair boots from AAFES Clothing Sales. My unit see...
