Ranger Rank and Awards

Hell yeah, I want to kick ass and be the best at it.If ya wanna be a warrior then go solo so you can concentrate on the mission ahead.
eddie, I didn't join as my brothers have. I was drafted back in the old days before they invented VCR's (long time ago). In the old days most men drafted went into the infantry. I did. I went overseas and joined a unit as a volunteer. They needed men & I joined them. The unit I was in was combined into the 75th Ranger Infantry. I didn't join but didn't run either. I continued doing what I was and that was reconning. We took our jobs very seriously as doing missions became a life or death thing should we be discovered by the enemy. If you need some clarification on what I am saying, then please visit my units site. 4thdivrangers.com I was in the 2nd Brigade before we merged into the 75th Rangers. The main items I am proud having earned them both in training and in combat. I will omit some until my reunion in Washington State.

Realize I wasn't in 75th, but nonetheless..
e-4 - Gold Wings, Ranger Tab (worn underneath the pocket flap), French Amphibious Commando badge (can't wear), Spanish jump wings (I don't know if I could wear those, never checked)... It's easier for Marines, less shit to shine!!
