Re: SITREP for Dave
Good luck in obtaining the Option 40. If by chance you are not able to obtain one, and near the end of your Airborne training you spot a soldier wearing a tan beret walking up to the front of the formation be ready to be the first one to volunteer (this is assuming they still ask for volunteers in A...

Re: Introduction- Garrett
See, I joined the Army, young and dumb... convinced by an Army recruiter that no "Ranger Contracts" were available, and if you want to be a Ranger all you gotta do is sign up "Unassigned Airborne" and you'll get it... trust me. Trust me... I was really pissed when I heard the the...

Thanks!!
From a Vet to all other Vets, and the families of Vets that have left this Earth! Thank you all for all that you have sacrificed, or continue to sacrifice to allow the Freedoms that me and mine have. It is the call of patriotic selflessness that makes this Country greater than all others. No other w...

Hey BlueSkies I love your avatar. It reminds me when our section made a chute out of an old flare parachute and made a harness for our mascot Iguana. On fun jumps one of us would put it in a pocket, and then let him drop once under canopy. Did this a few times until a gust of wind caught him and sen...

First about ammo: Every firearm will function differently with different ammo. Not just different makes or models of firearms, but different firearms of the same make. Many variables enter an equation to account for this, but the shooter plays a large part in the equation as well. A friend and I hav...

Now I've seen another video that says it was an F-16 and a bomb. I may be wrong, but I would think a bomb would be juuuuust a lit bit bigger boom, especially considering that an F-16 would probably have at least a 1000 lber. Set me straight if you believe otherwise, but I've had a 2000 lb bomb deton...

Great video! :twisted: I don't know shit about AC-130's, but I was just wondering what hit the terrorists, a dropped bomb, laser guided missle, I have no clue... Bombs or missles...

I've noticed alot of guys asking questions about the physical requirements of being a Ranger, from basic on through to Batt. Although it is very important to be strong, and have endurance, the one key factor in determining sucess or failure is the individual mind. Instead of asking how many miles sh...
