I approached him and let him know how I admired him and wanted to shake his hand and thank him for his service. I then asked him for a photo and he agreed, he even...

DC22X, Update? Ranger Jim, The charity event took place right before I shipped to OSUT and I haven't been home since.

Re: 75th Ranger Regiment Recruiting
Good to hear from you again young Padawan. Ranger Jim would probably know more about this than I, but it would seam that your question would be best answered over at 2nd Battalion Headquarters.
