Welcome to the site Andrew. Take a new PT Test and post up the scores. Make sure you are scoring yourself properly also. Sounds like you're doing really well.

Why do you want to be a Ranger?

Welcome to the site Andrew! I assure you this site has a great mentor program (as I am a mentee). Good luck securing your contract! If you are able to get it and with a shipdate before october contact me via PM. I literally live right next to the combat medic training area here on Ft Sam and we could maybe link up and share the knowledge that has been passed onto us. Again welcome to the sight ! RLTW!

regularguy64, since when were you invited into anothers intro? You could have avoided all this by just sending FarBeyondDriven a PM.

Since you are posting on a open forum, where are my 50 pu?

25 pu for not capitalizing (underlined above) the month: October.
25 pu for incorrect spelling (underlined above) of the word: site.

And last but not least - it is my understanding you are not yet a Ranger, then why is it you are using "our" RLTW? When you earn your Tan Beret then you can say RLTW.

To FarBeyondDriven, my apologies for this hijack

Welcome here.

That is a superficial answer. Please use the search feature, located on the top right portion of this thread to learn more about 68W option 40. Never, never quit!

**To clarify - what timeline are you planning on/around? I.e. are you planning to finish a degree first, did you call a recruiter this weekend, etc.
