Hello all,

I am 24 from Boston, MA, about to finish a Bachelors degree in Criminal Justice this August. I have sworn in with an 11x Option 40 contract, and I ship to Ft Benning on January 3rd, 2012 as an E-4.

I realize that serving as an Army Ranger with the 75th requires soldiers to go above and beyond, and so I have joined this community in an effort to better prepare myself for OSUT, BAT, RASP and service with the 75th Ranger Regiment.

I intend to read through the resources available on this site, and I look forward to learning from the experienced community here. Thank you in advance for time and guidance.

Matt

Welcome Matt, thank you for enlisting. If the screen name you are using is your first name initial grouped with your last name you need to request a new screen name to avoid OPSEC problems. If its is not then you are good to go.

Ranger al_2ndWolfhounds,

You are correct, and I would like to request a new screen name of "mv2012" to comply.

Welcome. Now do more PT.
and for heaven's sake BostonBoy - learn to use the letter "R" in your speech before you ship out.

Be very wary of law enforcement in your area - we are very well represented there.

Thank you, Ranger Mingo Kane.

Ranger KW Driver- will do right away.

Ranger K.Ingraham- I will work on proper letter "R" articulation prior to shipping! :)
