Re: SITREP- Garrett
Garrett, do not let your motivation subside while you are in Pre-RASP. I know shit can get boring there, best way to remedy this is by finding dudes like yourself, or better than you and training with them. Don't do stupid shit that will get you kicked out, avoid the transitions dudes as well. Keep ...

Re: Letter From School - Lyric
Lyric, continue to work hard and meet your next objective which is completing Phase 2. DO NOT LET OFF THE FUCKING GAS, you will see people get complacent and lazy who will not finish the assessment. Get with your boys, and knuckle down. Keep us posted, and don't fucking quit.

Re: Introduction- Andrew
Andrew, The path you are about to walk on in a few months many have done. You need to 100% and then some commit to this or I promise you will end up somewhere other than your desired finish line. Your mentor will tell you the same thing. When people do not commit 100% to something with the mindset o...

Re: SITREP- Garrett
Garrett, Glad to hear that things are going good, you have arrived at your 100m target. Airborne School is a fun school during jump week, but besides that, it is a lot of hurry up and wait. Try to have fun with it and make some homies, especially dudes who are trying to get to RASP. There are a few ...

Re: Intro - Stephen
Stephen, welcome to the site. I’m sure you’ve noticed the site is a bit slow like Ranger Disinfertention said, but there are still lots of things you can look around for. I’ll ask you this, why do you want to be a Ranger? What’s your fitness like? Are you in contact with a recruiter? Keep us posted,...

Re: Introduction -Lyric
Lyric, your pushup scores are solid! However, your situp score is exactly one situp above the standard for Regiment..... Also, your run times suck. You are going to be competing with other like minded, fit individuals when you get to Pre-RASP to compete for a class up spot. Waking up a little earlie...
