Ranger Jim, I'm not classing up. I failed the pull up standard since I didn't lock my elbows out and I kipped on my pull-ups so they didn't count. I was given a 2nd chance but wasn't able to do enough to meet the standard. So, I was dropped. I thought I put in enough work, but it obviously wasn't be...

Ranger Jim, I believe I am prepared or RASP. Since being at Pre RASP I have started hitting the weights. I am realizing at that my overall fitness needs weight lifting to incorporate being well rounded. I need to be stronger for my job regardless if I'm fit or not. However, I try not to over do it a...

Ranger Jim, The only other mentees that I am still in contact with is CCJ. BME was actually in my OSUT class and got recycled due to not finishing the 12 mile ruck due to an injury. I do not know his status. CCJ seems to be in the Airborne class behind me. I graduated on the 26th from Airborne. I se...

Ranger Jim, My company just finished week 1 of BAC. We got off work early today since we finished all the training the day before. 2 more weeks to go until the end of BAC. One thing I noticed was the amount of non infantry going to airborne school. The majority of people going were non- infantry. Ed...

Rangers and fellow mentees, I just wanted to post an update since I have been gone for a while. I graduated OSUT a few weeks ago and I'm in Airborne School right now. I have learned a lot in the past few months. Many guys I knew dropped their Ranger contracts before Airborne, and some are now droppi...

Rangers and mentees, I am currently at the MEPS hotel with my fellow 11x Option 40 buddy. We are actually rooming together. In less than 12 hours I will be starting my journey to becoming a soldier, and Airbone Ranger. I am disappointed for not finishing my task list. I did not keep my word. If I to...

Edit: I did not tell the 1st sergeant I was willing to take 11x option 4 or 11x as a last resort. I told him I wanted only 11x option 40. Poor sentence structure, word placement, and a simple typo was the reason for the confusion.

Rangers, I am glad to finally say that as of last Wednesday 11x option 40 is finally mine! I was nervous, but excited at the same time. In total, I had to walk out 3 times of either MEPS or a Army recruiter. The 1st Sergeant who called me the day after my first MEPS visit still remembered me when I ...

Ranger Jim, I have not signed. I still have the chance to. Simply, I put it off and there really is no excuse. Been dealing with a lot of issues I can't control such as parental divorce, and started feeling sorry for myself trying to find the "right path" to go on. If I left sooner, I prob...
