Let this be a good lesson to all you Deppers out there. Listen, and let it sink in real good. Quitters are like a disease. You let a person with a quitters mentality to infest your AO, and it will destroy you.
A handfull a Rangers just took 100 Paratroopers, who were feeling proud of their new accomplishment and surely pumped up about the challenge of RIP. The cadre smelled blood, and one person quit, then another, and another, until only a few hours into the new challenge, over 30% of the class had quit. A day or so later, and nearly HALF of the class had quit.
It all started with one quitter. He quit, and then all the other quitters saw how easy it is to give up on oneself. Quitters spawn weakeness, and should be shunned always.
This is why when you see Deppers leave to start basic, you do not hear us say things like "Max your Pt test" or "make sure and tie your boots tight". No. What do we tell them? We tell them not to EVER, EVER, EVER quit - no matter what.
I don't give a shit what you boys do in life, but whatever it is that you go in for, don't quit. Stick it out, and see it through - because there is nothing on Earth worse than a quitter.
RIP Instructors are weeding em' out fast!!!

Before I die I would love to witness a pick up. Makes me smile just thinking of it!

Someone at H Co 121 LRS asked me a couple of days ago if I was one of the fuckers that did the pick-ups.
I told him no,I was at RTB not RTD.
Makes me wonder though...

Well said Sapper,Sapper1SG(Ret.) wrote:Ranger H8 Train,
Don't be pissed, fuck it, we appreciate the fact you ain't sending no shitbags to the Battalions to deploy with our sons. Thanks for the outstanding job you do weeding out those that don't belong.
Ranger H8, I would be happy to PM you with the ladies contact info...You can ask her personally what her son said..and then set the record straight, if you care to...Personally, I believe you have already proven he's NOT WORTH YOUR TIME!!!
