Welcome to the site, young Will. What part of the Great State of Texas do you hail from?

Earhtpig, might i also ask the symbological meaning of your avatar? I understand the significance of the color of the barret, but why the spade?

I used to live in Houston...you can have it.

I didn't change your avatar, nor did I see it before it was changed.
My avatar eludes to a Deathcard. The practice of leaving a 'calling card' on the bodies of dead enemies began in the Vietnam War (to the best of my knowledge). It was generally an ace of spades, with the unit crest, motto, etc printed on it. It served as a reminder to other enemy soldiers, who had killed their comrades. The skull on my spade (copyrighted) wears the tan beret of the 75th Ranger Regt.

Well, I talked to some recruiters at a concert the other week and i got a letter back saying i was too young. But they did give me a Tee-shirt for being able to do 20 pull ups :) Is there anything i can do untill i am of age?

Who will give me a t-shirt for 20 pushups?

I might be able to do 20.

Do good in school and stay out of trouble. There are many good books on the market about Rangering, if you want to go the extra mile. You can acquire a good list by doing a search on this site. Good luck.

He meant ALL at the SAME TIME, not 20 in 20 days.

It makes all the difference to me. In my prime, I could only get my 6.

Welcome, youngster. What brought you to Ranger Joe's? You just like visiting 'scenic' Columbus, GA or something?
