PerryB and Ranger Ron, I understand your reaction completely and like I said I feel bad about it myself. Up until recently honestly I've done fuck all in the means of cardio and I feel about dead at the end of a 2 mile run. My weight is fine, I'm 186 pounds at 6 feet or so, but my endurance is garba...

An update. I decided not to take my oath. I feel like shit about it but I'm not quitting, the goal is still very, very real. I've decided to wait a while. Right now I think I'm physically capable of being a Ranger, but I want to make damn sure I'm a PT stud before I take any oaths and ship out to OS...

I told him I was not going to enlist until I got an Opt. 40 contract. He's going to pull my SASVAB scores and call me within the next couple...

Roger that, CharlieRanger1FFV. I'm starting my APFT Improvement routine today. I've called off work today and I'm going to the recruiting office, hopefully there will be an Opt. 40 slot available. Will report back.

Roger, Ranger Jim. I'm working at my PT scores. I took note of the improvement thread earlier and I will start that routine tomorrow.

Hello, my name is Jon and I'm from the lovely albeit very rural eastern panhandle of West Virginia. I'm a fresh high school graduate and I work on a farm that raises and grows turkey, cattle, corn, and hay. I've been into guns since I was just a pup. I got my first gun when I was 12 and I've been co...
