Re: SITREP - Aaron

Ranger Jim, Elgecko is doing great, I believe he got orders to 2nd batt. We both graduated this past Thursday and enjoying our four day weekend. It is crazy how much has changed in these past 2 years of my life. I went from working a shitty retail job and taking some college classes, to enlisting in...

Re: SITREP - Aaron

Just finished up week 4. At the halfway point now, so far so good expect for a sprained ankle. I had to tough it out through our 10 mile ruck on Friday which was a bitch but, I still made it on time. Cole Range wasn't too bad after all, my land nav skills suck though. I just barely passed my day ite...

Re: SITREP - Aaron

Leaving Ft. Huachuca tonight ! I'll be in Fort Benning tomorrow afternoon. From my understanding I'm most likely going to miss the next RASP class which starts up in a few days. Either way I'm just glad I'm out of here and moving on.

Re: SITREP - Aaron

I have yet to go to Ft. Benning Ranger Jim but I look forward to it ! Yes I have memorized the Ranger Creed, started reciting it before I left for basic and I try to recite it at least once every night.

Only one in the entire platoon of about 165. I've been slacking on PT though..scored a 266 last week. I've been caught up in st...

Re: SITREP - Aaron

I have been selected to attend RASP after AIT & Airborne ! Started off with about 40 of us give or take, cut us down to around 20 right after the PT test. Then we had a little logic test to complete within 30 mins. After that, we had interviews with the 1SG. and a specialist from the Regiment. T...

SITREP - Aaron

Just a quick little update while I have time. I graduated basic on 20130606 and I arrived at my AIT the following day, which is where I am right now. Basic was....not what I expected to say the least. It wasn't hard, it was just aggravating due to the amount of shitbags you had to deal with. I did l...

Re: Introduction - Aaron

Roger that Ranger Jim. How are you doing? Looks like you ship in about two weeks. I'm doing well Ranger Jim, thank you for asking.
