After reading Black Hawk Down, the difficulty of an urban fight on an asymmetrical battlefield became very clear. Fighting in an ancient African city where every road and alley looks like the one before caused unforeseen problems for the soldiers that day in Somalia. These problems hindered rescue e...

Rangers, I've been busy with school and just got back from family vacation and haven't had a chance to post. Ranger xray- I have no idea why I was writing in first person, I changed it. I revised some of the paper, most notably switching the point of view and trying to make my points a little more c...

I have revised some of the paper. It's not due until Friday, so I'll probably turn it in Thursday. I'm taking it too a writing center tomorrow to help revise it even more. I agree that the paper is somewhat dis-jointed. It was difficult trying to answer my instructor's question while still providing...

Criticism is welcome--- Also the random numbers at the end of sentences are footnotes. The footnotes them selves have been taken out to make it a easier read, but finding all the numbers and taking them out would be a pain.

Rangers, I tried to post my paper but received the message "this extension doc is not allowed" or something along those lines. Any suggestions?

Also if this problem can't be fixed (document too large?) I'll email anyone the paper if interested.

Roger Ranger xray. I'll give proper credit to those who provided me with insight if I use their information.

Thanks for the posts Rangers. Ranger Bill and Ranger Dan B 3/75, looks like the question of when leadership failed to lead or failed to properly coordinate is a much more intriguing one then what I assumed. I have very limited military experience (limited being an understatement) with only a few mon...

Ranger KW Driver I thought that the subject of trying to find where leadership failed was not a positive one. But with hopes of becoming an officer one day, learning about failed leadership may be a good thing. I don't mind dealing with the subject at all.

Haha Ranger panthersix I'll be sure to mention that.

Ranger Bravo57 I'll pm you a copy of my finished paper. I'm not too fond of the subject, I'd rather have the option of writing about something a little more positive. However, orders are orders.

Roger Ranger K.Ingraham, with the sources you've provided anything but an A on this paper will be unsatisfactory.

Roger rgrwest. Thanks for the clarification.

Hello Rangers, I have a question regarding a paper that I have to write over the book "Blackhawk Down" for my military history class this summer. My instructor is an ROTC instructor who is training at Ft. Rucker this summer and is difficult to get into contact with. This is my paper assign...

Update Rangers-
I finished MEPs today. I'm shipping out 20100803. My MOS is 13b with basic being at Ft. Benning (woohoo) and my AIT being in Ft. Sill. Now that I have that out of the way, my next goal is to get my GPA up so I can branch Infantry upon graduation!

Ranger JTLW!!!, the jobs I listed are ones available to me because of my colorblindness. I'm going to talk with my recruiter tomorrow and he will tell me what jobs are available in the time slot I need. As of right now 11b/c is not an option because there are no more slots in the time slot I need. T...
