ArmyRanger.com Anniversary

Post by Ranger Ron »

Joined ArmyRanger.com five years ago today!!!! Having joined here has led me to the opportunity to meet some real heroes in person since. Looking forward to RR11 to see those heroes again.

I do appreciate the BS you all are throwing at me, but the purpose of this thread was about you all, not about me. It was about literally stumbling into this forum and the wonderful things that have happened to me and the real heroes that I have met because of a very lucky afternoon on the internet, 5 years ago today.

The way I became a Ranger and have earned the small amount of success I have had in life has been mostly due to one quality - determination. Lefty.

Take your punishment Ron! As Looon said, you really are a class-act Ranger, and I'm proud to have met you here and in person.

Think I may just call you "CLR" from now on (not the cleaning solution either), that stands for "ChemLightRon". :mrgreen:
