Re: SITREP - Johnathan
Roger, Ranger Jim. Thanks for the information. I don't think I'll be able to make contact with them. I'm sure they will be closed today and tomorow since it's Saturday and Sunday and my pass will end on Sunday evening at 2000. I won't get my phone again until the day before I turn blue, so I may hav...

SITREP - Johnathan
Rangers: I'm just posting a SITREP here as requested to keep in constant communication with everyone. My last post was in the futuresoldiers section back in January, a few days before I shipped for 11x. I officially graduated BCT and am on family day pass and am finally a soldier - the first step is...

SITREP - Johnathan
Hello Rangers: I'm currently at the MEPS hotel and will be shipping to Ft. Benning tomorrow for 11x. I've worked hard to get here and want to excel in OSUT to hopefully get an airborne and RASP slot. I will post an update as soon as I'm allowed to. Thanks for the continued support and I hope that ev...

Re: Introduction - Johnathan
Ranger Jim:
Thank you very much. I'm continuing to hit the PT hard this week and early next week until I ship next Wednesday. I will make another post the evening I'm at the hotel the night before shipping from MEPS.
Never, never quit!

Re: Introduction - Johnathan
Rangers: My apologies for the extreme delay in the SITREP, but I wanted to give up an update of my status. I enlisted back in November of 2014 and have had a month and a half to prepare for Infantry OSUT. I finished strong at my job (I was a paramedic instructor at a community college) and my last d...

Re: Introduction - Johnathan
Rangers and everyone else reading this thread: I have a great update! I enlisted this past Friday as an 11x. I did speak with my MEPS counselor, though, about my options as a 68W considering my background. He made copies of all of my certifications and I ended up getting approved for the ACASP progr...

Re: Introduction - Johnathan
Ranger Jim: I have not taken an enlistment oath yet - that will be this coming Friday. I am, however, done with my MEPS physical, so the "hard" stuff is over. The only thing I have left to do is an inspect (height and weight) and then talk to the MEPS counselor and then enlist. My recruite...

Re: Introduction - Johnathan
Ranger Jim: Thank you very much for the warm welcome and instructing me how to navigate the site. As to why I chose 11x....When I first tried enlisting at 18 years old, I wanted to go infantry at that time. When MEPS denied me back in 2008, they told me that I could try to reprocess in 2 years provi...
