Post by MAKO89 »

I am 23y/o been taking classes and have 60 hours credit. I am just not finding College to be fulfilling and I am not ready to move to a desk job. I have always wanted to serve in the Military and met with a recruiter last week. I have taken the ASVAB and got a GT 118. My recruiter is trying to push other jobs on me but I want to try and make it to RASP. I am on joining this site to gain information to help me achieve my goal.

If this was intended for Ranger Jim you are lacking in addressing a Ranger correctly & I see that the DIC sent you a PM already but yet you do not follow protocol. You are not home anymore when you come here.

OK, so now you have established a PT baseline to build on. Were your pull-ups palm in or out? Never, never quit!
