Re: Introduction - Delcore

Welcome. Just a heads up, there is no 5th battalion. There is the MIB (Military Intelligence Battalion), and 5th RTBn (Ranger Training Battalion), which runs the Mountain Phase of Ranger School, but no 5th battalion in Regiment. It's a tiny detail, but a pet peeve of mine. What attracts you to MI in...

2019 Ranger School AAR

I wanted to take a moment fresh out of Ranger School to write down some stuff I learned from my time there, because when I went to Ranger School, I didn't know anything about the school itself other than I knew I needed to go. If anyone has any questions, feel free to PM me or ask. I tried to avoid ...

Re: SITREP - Andrew

Outstanding, Ranger. RLTW!!! Congratulations Andrew, it's very impressive how much you've achieved already and I'm sure you're only getting started. Thank you, Rangers. I'm just trying to do my job and live up to those before me. Great work, Andrew. Maybe you can provide some feedback on Ranger sch...

Re: SITREP - Andrew

Rangers, After a brief hiatus, I'd like to provide a quick update. I was given an opportunity early on to go to Ranger School, and after an extended tour in Mountains, I'm graduating class 03-19 tomorrow. It was... an interesting experience. As always though, I will stay looking for what's next! Lio...

Re: SITREP - Andrew

Rangers, I'm proud to say Will and I both graduated yesterday. I was also fortunate to get PT grad for our class. I've known for a long time if I made it, I'd go to the MIB, so I'm very excited to go there and start my career. Also, a very big thank you to Ranger Disinfertention for coming down to o...

Re: SITREP - Andrew

Rangers, I am currently heading into Phase 2 with Will. It's been tough (and hot, haha!) so far but not impossible, and I look forward to learning a lot during Phase 2 and continuing down the path toward a tan beret. I am very grateful to have gone into RASP with Will and some of the other guys with...

Re: SITREP - Andrew

Outstanding! Keep your head in the game, don't get cocky, don't do anything stupid and get your shit! Never quit. RLTW! Roger, Ranger centermass. Good news. You won't have much spare time, but keep alt456 in the loop and motivated when you can. Most importantly, you two stick together. Finish stron...

Re: SITREP - Andrew

Rangers, Rednovember, atl456, and I all took the PT test today to class up for RASP. Rednovember and I will both be classing up, and hopefully atl456 will join the next class in August. I've had several opportunities to talk to the Rangers who graduated with last class from the forums, and they gave...

Re: SITREP - Andrew

Well done, Andrew. Try to stay in touch as you head into Pre-RASP. Did you get to be the #1 jumper on any of your jumps? I recall being the first jumper on our night jump in school I believe... Maybe it was a day jump and I was scared with my eyes closed... either way, that was fun. Ranger Disinfer...

Re: SITREP - Andrew

Rangers,
I apologize for not mentioning it too but because I went from AIT to BAC early, they pushed me into the April 2nd BAC class instead of the April 9th.

Re: SITREP - Andrew

Rangers, I just finished graduating from Airborne and move to Pre-RASP Monday. I don't have much new to contribute about Airborne, but jumping is one of the most surreal things I've ever done, and if I could keep going back up every day I would. Words don't describe the feeling of jumping adequately...

And agree, it's going to be a great time minus all that shuffling around. Roger, Ranger Disinfertention. I'm anxious to learn th...

Re: SITREP - Andrew

I'm mostly just trying to stay positive, at this point, and use this time to prepare even more. Hey Andrew. That's crappy news but glad to see this at the end of your post. Leverage the time you have the best you can. It's easy to get lost in the "hurry up and wait" machine of the Army. R...
