How Hard Is Ranger School, Really?
For a Ranger candidate, the cold desolate roadway leading up to Camp Darby is one filled equally with anticipation as it is with anxiety. The journey towards achieving the coveted black and gold tab is one of inspirational stories and heart wrenching defeats. The journey is, as the sign says, not for the weak and faint of heart.

Don't know if I'd say School was hard, but it sure fucking sucked.
