Re: Re-enlistment Ceremony

Ranger . I was reading it at http://www.cavhooah.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;, most likely bias towards cav, however, one of the only informative Calvary websites. Might have to look around a bit on the site, but it is there. It actually said that 75% of Rangers are o...

Re: Re-enlistment Ceremony

Really? That fucking sucks... I was reading yesterday that the Rangers are comprised mostly of prior Calvary... does this mean they had to reclass to get ranger? and also, a cav scout came over to my building yesterday and told me that they get all that stuff. Air Assault, Airborne, RIP. All kinds o...

Re: Re-enlistment Ceremony

The drive...

"The drive" is not something found in everyone... it is not even something I think can be explained fully, or even almost... The drive is what pushes me to pt three times a day (twice on my own) on days when Im not motivated... Its what has gotten so many better men than I, tabbed... Its w...

Re: Lack of motivation in command= lack of motivation in ranks..

Thank you both. I'll tell you this, I hate to complain about things...aside from the usual b.s. that we all talk about, "oh, sgt whatever was bein a real ass today...etc" I generally take heed to the saying, "suck it up and drive on." Ive been fuming for weeks now about the way t...

Lack of motivation in command= lack of motivation in ranks..

So this morning was the last straw... I was taking some damn initiative this morning and swimming during PT. My command recently put out that we are all allowed to swim with the new CO on tuesdays and thurdays. So here I am, swimming my ass off, breathing like a horse after a race, and my NCO comes ...

Thank you both very much. Its true that I dont feel like im improving with the current pt format. I discussed with my NCO and He agreed to take me one on one 3 times a week and form a custom-tailored plan to fit my needs. Your advice has helped.

Is normal pt hurting me?

I am active duty and do pt with my unit every morning. Our run days are usually three times a week and consist of either sprints or a "distance" run. The sprints I can see would help no matter what, but my question is this: If the distance runs are generally no more than 3-4 miles long and...

Thank you, I will drive on. Its a goal that Im not telling very many people about because I want to be mentally eager each day to go out and train when most others choose to sham on pt. I feel like the more people that know, the more negativity I will hear. Thats the principal reason why Im here, if...
