Intro - New RIP graduate

Post by Ranger Lil' Foot »

Hey, my name is Rob. I just graduated from RIP on Thursday and will soon be headed to 1st BN.

I do want to say thanks to all of you for taking my wife in on the board (Proud Ranger Wife).

Looking forward to being part of the group.

Welcome Ranger Lil' Foot. Yes we are happy for you that you graduated RIP. Now you know that as a new cherry Ranger, I have to ask you to drop and make this old Fart smile when you do 20 PU's. BTW, we like your wife. She done you proud! She's a good woman. :lol:

Thanks for the congrats.

I'm headed back to Benning for BRM week. On Monday, we're due to find out if we get leave or go straight for in-processing.

I know I'm lucky to have my wife! She's been really supportive and it's made a big difference in getting this far.

BTW, I knocked out those PU's for you...

In process with only your required gear.......If inprocessing is anything today like it was when I was in, you will have to run with your shit and have it repeatedly dumped...and then you get like 20 seconds to pack it all back up!

Being a packrat, I reported with 3 duffle bags and a civie suitcase....... :?

You are a lucky man, to have a wife that supports you so much. Make sure she comes back and says high once in a while also. This is a time in your life you will always remember as one of the best.
