Done with Ranger School!

Haven't posted in a while; stayin' pretty busy at work :wink: . Thinking it's about time to post an update on the ultimate goal here. Got here over 3 years ago and found some great knowledge. Ranger school was not what I expected on a few levels. It sure did fucking suck though. I think I'm like a r...

Re: It begins.

Ranger Jim, Initially the site helped answer questions about the enlistment process and OSUT. Questions that my recruiter would not answer as well as general guidance in going about things. I was able to form a work out routine based on those given here that actually enabled me to make progress. I w...

It begins.

I started my journey on this website and I ended up in the Q-Course. After 20 months of dedication, hard work, and blatant sucking I've completed it. I was rained on, I was snowed on, I was wet, I was tired, I was hungry... and for some reason it brought me happiness. I am now ready to do my job. I ...

You can contact them there. They are tabbed now so I don't know if they make more songs or not.

Pre-Qual Training complete!

Well, graduation from airborne is tomorrow. Delta company sucks ass. Our final jump claimed a lot of people... the overcast was absolutley horrible. It was impossible to see the ground yet alone the canopy; PLF's with the gear still strapped to you are not fun. In the process of my training I change...

Recruiter hit_it, Thank you for clarifying that. I called my university and I was told that I will be given a full transcript reflecting my degree awarded. One squared-away individual there made the decision to expedite the process. That sure has made my life easier. Ranger Spartan, I'm concerned wi...

Ranger Charlie 51 and Ranger EvilCouch What is the most proper form of addressing a higher ranking person if it's not sir? Maybe it's civilian ignorance, but sir is more of a respectful term than a form of patronizing someone. Do I just address them by their title, or what's the correct way in the ...

Ranger Charlie 51, By skimming through the posts I had the impression that recruiter hit_it was a Ranger. While it was on my mind that it was a possibility he was not, I took a chance in an attempt not to offend him. It will not happen again. Ranger RTO, That was a PT test done for the recruiter. It...

Ranger hit_it, My school just advised me that I cannot get a complete transcript showing degree awarded untill "early june" (which fucks me royally because I leave the 29th of this month!). What they did say is that they can give me a "Letter of Completion;" basically stating the...
