My name is Bob and I'm a high school junior. You Rangers are people I look up to. My friend told me about your site.

Just seems too good to be true Ranger Saltbitch. He says he went to an Ivy League college, was making hundreds of thousands of dollars with a beautiful fiance and the fast track to the top of the corporate world. And he gave everything up (including the house and car to the fiance) to join the Rangers. This isn't an indictment of Rangers; they are among the best and brightest. But his situation seems one of a kind, and to do all of this in the last two years, and then write it up and post it on the web, makes me skeptical (especially because Rangers are silent professionals).

Welcome to the site.

FYI......I was 26 years old, 3 bedroom home, car and a PU, motorcycle, boat, making over 30 thousand a year and I was going out of my mind because the rut I was in was so deep. I shopped for a recruiter for a year, joined the military, had a huge garage sale and gave shit away. I filed income tax on 36 thousand in 1979, then filed income tax on 8 thousand in 1980. Go figger. Never have I regretted that decision.

Welcome bob51. Good luck to you in your endeavors.

On a side note: Ranger Pat Tillman gave up millions and a promising football career to become a Ranger and serve his country. He also made the ultimate sacrafice. RIP Ranger Pat Tillman.

You need to read the FAQ's and try again. For a fresh start, try digging yourself out of the hole you've put youself in.

If you go back and actually read the site you will find out he joined to be in Special Forces. Big difference.

Welcome to the site, good luck.
