Intro: proud dad

Post by Dismay »

Hello Rangers,

I first found this site when my son was going through Ranger School, and used it educate myself about what he was going through. This site was and is a great source of information, and I want to thank you all for keeping it up.

Needless to say, I'm very proud of my son, who's now an infantry PL in the 25th ID. He'll be competing in the Best Ranger Competition in April, and I'll be there to cheer him on, so please let me know if any of you are around to meet up for a beer.

Besides my son, my oldest daughter did a stint in Iraq as an 88H and my youngest daughter's in Army ROTC right now at UCLA - I'm a proud Army Dad!

Welcome, Dismay. If your son was chosen to represent the 25th ID in BRC, you have good reason to be proud.

His Commanding General (CG) is MG Kurt Fuller. A well known and very respected Ranger in the annals of Ranger history going all the way back to Grenada.

And both your daughters have Army in their blood as well. Dad? You got your hands full.

Welcome to the site and good luck to your son at BRC in April.
