Re: Introduction - Matthew

Rangers, It has become the usual that anytime it snows you can bet we are out there rucking. Today my Brother, Jack, and I completed a 7 mile ruck. It is always enjoyable cutting a path through the snow for other people to use. Jack seems to have adjusted well to the ALICE pack and both of the MOLLE...

Re: Introduction - Matthew

Rangers,

For the misspelling of 'forward' in the previous post I will be doing 100+1 push-ups.

My apology.

Re: Introduction - Matthew

Rangers, A few weeks ago I took the ASVAB test as my school. I have received the results back and I am proud to say that I received a 76. Lately I've been busy with Sea Cadet work and going to the gym, but the grind never stops. We've had a few instances of snow in Delaware lately, the snow is my fa...

Re: Introduction - Matthew

Ranger Disinfertention, The wrist is healing well, I would say that it is almost fully healed. It has not stopped me from working out and doing push-ups though. For some odd reason it would only hurt if I bent it at a sharp angle such as trying to touch my fingers straight down to my wrist. As of no...

Re: Introduction - Matthew

Roger Ranger Disinfertention,

I apologize for going on a bit of a tangent. Sometimes expectations for people in high places aren't always how they should be.

Re: Introduction - Matthew

Rangers, I've completed my Field Operations training in Florida yesterday afternoon and I am already in my vehicle on my way back up north. The instructor for my training had previously been an Army Ranger and retired as an 18D after 22 years of service. We learned many things namely a few such as b...

Re: Introduction - Matthew

Roger Ranger Disinfertention,

I will be sure to send your congratulations onto my oldest brother. I am unsure if Jack has created an account yet but I have asked him to join. He isn't very tech-savvy but I will see what I can do.

Re: Introduction - Matthew

Rangers, Today my brother and I completed a 7.7 mile ruck in the snow. We stopped at our halfway point briefly to eat some snacks, but I am proud of our total time for completion which was 2 hours and 40 minutes. It is always neat to take in all of your surroundings and just be drawn in by it. When ...

Re: Introduction - Matthew

Rangers, Today my brother and I completed a 9 mile ruck in 4" of snow and nasty wind. We completed this ruck with our good friend Jack, who also wants to be an Army Ranger. He is also attending the Field Operations training in Florida with us, and we will be driving down together. I think he ha...

Re: Introduction - Matthew

Rangers, Today my brother and I completed a six and a half mile ruck. We didn't time the ruck but in the future we plan on making the ruck weekly and eventually extending the distance even further. We rucked with our packs loaded up to the 35 pound standard and with all gear loaded our packs weighed...

Re: Introduction - Matthew

Rangers, I've begun working to improve my APFT scores by starting Ranger Silverbacks's push-up program. I will hopefully have updated APFT results within a few days. In the mean time my brother and I have been working on toughening up our feet for upcoming rucks. My brother and I have been trying to...
