Thank you, Rangers. Next task is Fort Richardson, Alaska, where I'll prepare myself to head back to Fort Benning to get the Ranger Tab. The Ranger Handbook is going to become a daily read, as I feel I am prepared physically.

Rangers, I apologize for the lack of updates. Knocking out 50 good ones. I received my Wings today.

Rangers, I am currently at Fort Benning for Airborne School. Just in-processed on Friday and will be starting class on Monday. Staying motivated as ever and driving on to the goal.

Rangers, I have just returned from the field, my last field cycle while here in Korea. I e-mailed a recruiter from the 75th requesting a packet to fill out to go to RASP. I received the e-mail while I was out, and in the beginning stages of filling it out. My physical from my Airborne packet should ...

Just took a PT test this morning.

Rangers, I have been given a class date for Airborne School at the beginning of January. I am ecstatic about going and falling out of a perfectly good airplane. Due to my high PT score that I achieved, my Platoon Sergeant also put my name in for a slot to go to Air Assault School at Camp Casey in Se...

Results of my record I took this past Monday.

Then I tested pull-ups and the 5 mile.

Kind of a bump. But my last self-administered:

2MR: 13:25
Pull-Ups: 13

Overall: 293/300

Rangers, I contacted my branch manager a few nights ago. I was able to pull a slot for Airborne School after I PCS out of Korea.

Keeping on keeping on as always, Rangers.

Will be changing up my workout routine. Going down the same route as Giant and smsst14 and starting the 12 Week RASP Training Plan next Monday. Will be doing a self-administered PT test on Saturday to get a baseline of where I stand right now.

Ranger Jim, little things like stating what I was doing got me for the most part. There were several times that I could have rebutted a no-go, but there were too many menial screw ups that just added up to even try. In train-up, the instructors did an excellent job of explaining what they wanted to ...

Rangers, CTL 1 jumped up and bit me big time. The little things were what got me. I'm disappointed that I didn't earn the badge this go around, but it was a great learning experience. Now I know what to be expecting for the next attempt. Still motivated as ever, though!

Rangers, the course is going well. We are finishing up train up week tomorrow and begin testing on Sunday. If I can get my land navigation perfected tomorrow, I have full faith that I will earn the badge. Staying motivated!
