You have not earned the right to have the word "Army" as part of your user name. You have 24 hrs to request a different name, or I will assign one myself. Thanks.

Here at armyranger.com, we take some pride in assisting young men as they begin their life journey. If you want to earn a place in the 75th Ranger Regiment, you came to the right site. Read all the FAQs, as well as selected stickies and threads. There are very few questions that have not already been addressed. The search feature is your friend -- I reserve judgement. You may note that, unlike many sites, modesty reigns here. You are in the presence of men that I personally admire and respect. A collection of men who have "been there -- done that." You are our guest; please don't abuse our hospitality. For your initial task, please self-admister a PT test and post your results on this thread not later than midnight, Sunday, 14 February 2010. Never, never quit!
I will get to that as soon as I can. I work throughout the week and Sunday is my only day off, but I'll be sure to get it done.

lol. No I didn't know there was no 19D for Rangers. I meant to clarify that. I wanted to say I was going into the Army in general for 19D. If there's no 19D for Rangers, then no problem, I'll either apply for it at a later time or find another MOS.

I am getting tired of your obvious lack of respect for the Rangers in this forum. A Ranger gave you a link to the MOSs available in the Regiment and you showed absolutely no appreciation for this by not even acknowledging the link he gave you. I explictedly told you:
ZoneIV wrote:When responding to question/comment made by a Ranger (you will see Ranger under his username) on this Board, you start your comment with "Ranger USERNAME".
You have disregarded this in every post you have made. You have made dumbass and arrogant statements in this thread, have shown that you cannot comprehend simple english and cannot follow instructions. Why should any Ranger in this forum give you any help or advise at all?
I did acknowledge that post a while ago when I first read it. And later said, when I replied to it, that the link was broken, and didn't work when I clicked on it. And if I've disregarded anything it was never intentionally, so please forgive me.

Young man, I'm not sure that we have your attention. So far you have demonstrated that you do not follow instructions. You are a week past the deadline I gave you to self-administer a PT test. You give snotty responses to other Rangers. Please let me remind you that you are a guest on this site. For the final warning, do not abuse our hospitality, Walter.
