welcome to the site! Intro gets a fist bump AND high five

I took Intro to Philosophy... twice. No big deal.

First, let me thank you all for your input and advice. I posed this question in the first place because I wanted the opinions of those I respect. I was asked to answer my own question so here it is: I'd be lying if I did not try to combine what was said throughout this thread into one answer right h...

Fellow Rangers, I'm about 4 months into my new gig as a cherry LT ( I have to say I was prior enlisted and went through OCS to avoid any confusion...). I want your opinions as to what makes a lieutenant successful in the Army. I know that from my time as an enlisted soldier I wanted my LT's to not r...

Take heed to what all of these Rangers have told you...sounds like you are already so keep it up. I trained a lot of 13F's in Regiment's RTO course which you'll attend if you pass RASP. You will most definitely ruck but you will really use your assault pack more than anything on deployments--which i...

Ranger K.Ingraham nailed it. I worked closely with our intel guys on my last deployment. They are amazing at what they do and you bet your ass they are used. A Ranger private intel analyst can look at his commander, say, "hey sir, we need to go here and take care of (fill in the blank)"......

I've been out of Regiment for a year but this is how it was when I was there: Once you pass RASP, you get assigned to RMED. From there you train, do various support requirements for RHQ or RSTB...during this time they send the medics to SOMC--Spec Ops Medics Course. I think that's a requirement for ...

The article made some good points. I just crossed over to the dark side in May '09 so I can relate to the retaining and ADSO discussions. One thing I would have liked to see brought up is the affect the GWOT has had on keeping good officers. Most of the quality officers we are used to seeing were br...

I'm 29 so I'm probably on the outskirts of the "Generation Me" category. I was a Tiger-Cub and a Cub-Scout when I was a kid but just as most of you posted earlier, the stuff we did was pretty lame and by the time I was going to do the Boy Scout thing I looked at my dad and asked if I could...

Hey guys,
I found what I needed...thanks for the support too! Hope you had a ball at RR09 if you made it...this was the first one I've missed since 04. I'll be there for the next one though for sure....take care and thanks again.

Rangers,
I recently graduated OCS and my first assignment before I try to get back to Regiment is 1st batt, 3rd SFG at Ft. Bragg. I'm specifically looking for their unit awards/citations. If there are any group guys or anyone in general who can square me away I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

Good luck and I hope you make it to Regiment. You got your tab so that will definitely help you out....now get that scroll!

Another one of the 75th's bastard children from 2nd Batt!!! Glad to have you. Welcome.

No prob....I hope it all works out for you. Again, safe return from wherever you are over there.

Gundawg09 You are not going to get assigned to the 75th....this is a volunteer unit. Your best bet is to wait until you get to your new unit, get a slot for Ranger School and get your tab, and then put in your packet to come here. Depending on your rank you will either go to RIP or ROP. But, either ...
