Re: Introduction-Luke
Roger, Ranger Steadfast and Ranger Affirm. I understand what I did was wrong and there was no reason for me not to be truthful.

Re: Running
Roger, Ranger rgrleo. Thank you for the reply. I see Rangers post on here daily to never quit and I can honestly say those words on a computer screen have effected me and I have begun to apply that mentality to my every day life.

Re: Introduction-Luke
Ranger Jim, I'd first like to admit I haven't been entirely truthful. I stated I have already enlisted in the DEP as a 68W Option 40 recruit, but the truth is I'm going to MEPS next Friday to enlist. After reading everything I could on the site about Ranger Medics I have decided that path isn't for ...

Re: Running
Ranger Steadfast I can assure you I am perfectly healthy and qualified to be in the Army, I just don't run at all and have only recently started a running program. Right now my goal is to just run a mile without stopping, which I can do but I'd like to do it without feeling dead afterwards. I have s...

Running
Rangers, sorry to bother you all but after some searching on the site I couldn't find the answer to my big problem with running. Do any of you Rangers have any tips on how to control breathing while running? After half a mile I start panting like crazy. I don't feel tired at all, no cramps, I just f...

Re: Introduction-Luke
I told you in my earlier post "Not to waste their time." Attention to detail. It will save your life, and more importantly, the lives of others. Start paying attention to it from this day forward, in everything you do. Whether it's your spelling and grammar here on the site, to your every...

Re: Introduction-Luke
Didn't Ranger Grim666 give you enough of his valuable time? You didn't even bother to follow Ranger Jim's advice by using the search feature for your answer(s)? I know you didn't. Do you think you are the first 68W to ask this - no, your not. I also learned this fact long before you registered. We ...

Re: Introduction-Luke
Everyone has to start somewhere. Keep it up and never quit. I'll try my best Ranger SLEDGE HAMMER Regarding your PT although your scores suck at least you are being honest with them. I would rather see some scores like this knowing that you are being honest then some of the other scores I have seen...

Re: Introduction-Luke
A medic in batt is a medic, not an infantryman. However, you are on the battlefield. Medics are attached at the hip to their Platoon Sergeant on combat operations. If you take contact, you are still in the fight. Otherwise, you train the platoon on RFR/medical stuff and provide sick call. Medics in...

Introduction-Luke
Hello, I'm Luke. I'm currently 17 years old and a junior in high school. I enlisted pretty recently as a 68W Option 40 recruit and I got a whole year to go before going to basic training. I was hoping some of you Rangers would share some of your wisdom with me. I wanted to be an infantryman, but I w...
