Seriously? Try re-reading them at a slow rate to hopefully ensure your comprehension.

Sorry, i was still reading and writing my intro at that time. Sean, Sean, Sean... Who do you think you're talking to right now? Some dude from school you like to wrestle? Perhaps a pal from the bar? How about a Non-Commissioned Officer from the most elite Infantry unit in the entire world? Also kno...

Pretty sure that was E co 51st. When I was in Vicenza they were the LRS guys in Germany. That was as recent as 2004.

One of my Joes was with E Co in Germany around 2004, maybe '05. Definitely LRS.

ski20,
Why don't you quit your focus on his "mistakes" and go do PT. I read through all your posts and it's a bunch of drivel. You've got a long way to go yourself and you aren't doing him or yourself any favors posting any info.

I'll tell you what Mike, why don't you PM me your thoughts on the word adversity and why it's compelling to you? I might have some information that you might find valuable, and depending on which way you want to go with this, I might just hand it out.

In the face of adversity, you have two choices. I believe you made your choice. And by the way, next time you reply to someone on this board that has the title "Ranger" under their name, you should preface it with "Ranger". As in, Ranger Lefty..., Ranger ZoneIV.... If you're conc...

Benning's Infantry website has contact info under the RTB section you could call up.

Which school?

I'll make you a deal. Go back and re-type your post and capitalize the word "Ranger", and I'll answer your questions.

It's good to be nervous, and sometimes it's okay to be afraid. But never allow yourself the though that you "could" fail. You must always believe you "will" succeed. Chew on that for a bit.

A rucksack is designed to carry a heavier load over a heavier distance without doing as much damage to your spine and shoulders than your school backpack. It can be adjusted and packed to place the load's weight higher up on your shoulders. A school back pack, while more streamlined, will not only f...

How did your first ruck go? I've got a five mile run followed up by an 8 mile ruck this morning, and I just got back from a 1.5 hour gym spree. I'm not trying to one-up you or act "tough", so don't read into it. The shit ain't free.

What's your budget?

Since you appear to be smart, I have a challenge for you. Go down to your local mil-surplus store or ebay, and buy a rucksack. Pack about 40lbs into it, draw up a rucking routine, and do it for a month constantly pushing yourself in the middle of the night, while all your buddies are out drinking an...

Sounds like you lived a lifetime in 8 years. Welcome Ranger.
