Rangers Jim and Silverback,

They're trying to get you to go quick to quick-ship you (leave within 40 days). If you do that they give you a big(er) bonus, but don't take the money if you're not ready.

Prick E7 still gets the new guys.


I find it's easier to look straight when I do PUs, it lets me judge if I'm breaking the plane or not. I've never had my reps counted for me either, it's always a big mystery if I don't keep track myself.

Cardio burns fat for energy unless you're doing anaerobic cardio (sprints), which is catabolic (burns muscle). I find cardio before weights just tires me out.

Ranger Bill,

Did not know that about UCMJ, thought we fell under it at all times. My squad leader is my squad leader and I was looking at meeting the weight just to avoid conflict with him.
