Ranger Wife Intro

Post by lostinspace »

HI! You know my husband as "roadtheshortbus". Yes, he really can't spell. He has been encouraging me to join this site but as soon as I did the first two things he said were (1) "don't embarrass me" and (2) "don't say anything about a coin"!

For those of you who know him, I couldn't possibly do any more damage to him about #1. Now as for #2, I don't know any of you well enough yet to kiss and tell. :wink:

Here's a little background about me. My father is retired Army (0-5). We moved constantly while I was growing up (11 times in 13 years). His last assignment was in Worms, Germany. (1975-77) He retired and we moved to San Diego were I went to high school and college. I call it home since I lived there longer than anywhere else. I then moved to Ohio to go to law school (please - no hate mail :D )

Ranger-hubby and I got married in 1994 and now have two boys, ages 9 and 6. We recently moved to a tiny Mayberryish town in SE Ohio that has about the same population of my high school in 1982. This explains my username.

Before I met my hubby, I had never heard of Army Rangers. Now that I do and have had the privilege of meeting many of his Ranger buddies, I have the utmost respect for you and what you do. Thank you for keeping us safe and making such tremendous sacrifices.

Lastly, I do have a question ... do they teach you how to cuss in Ranger School or was it a pre-req to get in? :lol:

Hi lostinspace,

Welcome, thank you to you and your Ranger for your sacrifices.

I'm looking forward to getting to know you more in the fox hole, it's the lady side of ArmyRanger.com's house.

"High" Honey??? I said he couldn't spell! I guess that's why I'm the brains and he's the brawn.

It's always good to have a goal ... especially if it's high.

Now about the hair ... I'll take it as compliment - I finally have the answer to where his hair went when he started to get bald. His cover story was that he lost it due to friction. :wink:
