Graduation.
Well for those that may or may not remember me, I tried going through RIP a few years ago and did not make it. Well, after reenlisting and coming all the way back to Ft. Benning, I graduated earlier today with the rest of Class 06-09. I will be headed to 1st Batt and can't wait to start this new chapter in my career. I would like to say thank you for the things I have learned on this site, because without them I might still have been flapping in the wind. So thank you Rangers, and especially to my mentor Ranger McD.
First Batt, Best Batt 09-12

Outstanding Ranger!
Excellent example of never quitting and reaching your goal.
Well done, and welcome to the brotherhood.

Re: Graduation.
Good job, especially with not losing sight of your objective.
This second time around you have some experience to bring to the Regiment & so are liklier to have something to offer.
McD might want to meet you at RR this year

"Posted: Thu Dec 22, 2005 11:45 am. I'll get straight to the point. I failed my RIP PT tests, and I am currently on WorldWide assignment. I will not be deterred however, I will be back. I will be a Ranger before I get out of the Army, one way or another. I want to thank all you at AR because without this site, I probably would've been fucked even worse.
I will still be hanging around, exploring my new path to the 75th, and hopefully I'll get a 2nd chance in just a few short months."
