Introduction-Tyler

Post by Tyler_dilley99 »

Hello Rangers-
My name is Tyler, I am 17 years old and a junior in highschool,I've always wanted to join the 75th ranger regiment. For the past two years I've been preparing and studying for the 75th ranger regiment in different ways whether that's doing sports(wrestling) and endurance training or just making changes to my every day life. And I've done all of these things with one goal in mind and that's to be an army ranger. So I would like to thank you for allowing me access to this abundance of information to help me prepare even more for the challenges that await me.

First, Thank you Ranger Jim for welcoming me

Second- a little about myself, as you already know I'm a 17 year old junior in high school, some of the extracurricular activities I do is wrestling and next season I plan on running cross country to help train, I enjoy hunting and fishing, etc. A lot of the time whenever I tell people I want to join the 75th ranger regiment they always ask why. And I never really have an answer, all I can say is it's like a fire in my gut, like a compelling force to be part of the best.

Thanks and if you have anymore questions please ask

Welcome.

It's 75th <strong>R</strong>anger <strong>R</strong>egiment and <strong>A</strong>rmy <strong>R</strong>anger.

Do some push ups to reinforce the corrective action and jump start your PT preparedness.

Well apparently the BOLD font didn't work out well to make my point clear.

We capitalize Ranger Regiment and Army Ranger, you will as well.

Let's do push ups together now.
