Introduction, Future soldier

[Chomy]

Hello Rangers, and all other members of this helpfull website. First I would like to thank you for allowing me to become a member and post on this site, I have been posting on the U.S Army fourm site under Special Operations but Its not as helpfull as I would like it to be so I moved to this one. I am currently a senior in High School and waiting to turn 18 and graduate before I enlist as a 11b. I plan to get an option 40 contract and become a U.S Army Ranger. Being a Ranger has been a dream of mine since I was a freshman in High School and a Army Ranger came and talked to my Army Junior ROTC class. I live near Cincinnati, Ohio but recently moved to Northern Kentucky. I can not wait to serve my country and become one of the elite Army Rangers. Alot of my family and friends are in the military and I respect everyone who serves their country no matter what branch or MOS. My main concern for R.I.P and just joining the Army itself is my weight. I am about 5'8 and weight only around 125lbs. I've tried for the past year to gain weight and I just can not keep it on me though, that doesn't go say I am an average skinny guy. I work out almost every day of the week to prep my self for Rangers. I haven't taken a timed PT test in a while but I plan on it soon, and when I do I will post to show you were I currently stand. Any Advice or anything would be appreciated, thanks again.

Rangers Lead The Way!

PT
Push ups~65
Sit ups~ 67
(I'll put up my 2 mile run tomorrow when I get home from school because I'm running 2 mile in Gym at abut 0900) I would of done it tonight but I don't exactly no how far 2 miles is here cause I'm fairly new to the area and Its alot of up and down hills and I don't know how if that effects the run or not. I imagine it would make it tougher.

Goals -
Push ups~ 80-100+
Sit ups~ 90-100+
2 Miles~ 13:00 (or less shootin for more 12:30 area)

Welcome. Your desire to serve our country as an Army Ranger is appreciated. You should consider talking to a recruiter soon so you can start the enlistment process and enter the Delayed Entry Program with an Option 40 contract and lock in a ship date of your choice. Be sure to read and heed the ROE PM I have sent you.

Chomy, check your PMs.

Roger, I've read the PM and understood. Again thanks for allowing me on here to talk with real Rangers, it really is appreciated. I would also like to take the moment just to say that I am looking for someone who could individually help me out as a mentor, I'm dedicated 100% and then some to becoming a Ranger and I want to enlist already prepared for the challenges ahead.

Just remember one EXTREMELY important fact, stud. It's okay to be proud of your ethnic background but we salute ONE FLAG in this country. Good luck in your journey.

Roger Ranger Maggot275. I am an american inside and out, and will always uphold the flag above anything else, and do what is right and fight for freedom. No other country comes close to how high I hold the United States. And thank you for the "Good luck" I'll most likely eventually need it.
