Updated Intro
Here is my first intro for those who are interested.
viewtopic.php?t=28373
Since then I have graduated Basic and AIT. I was lied to in Basic about going to Airborne or Ranger. I was told that because I was a 56M Chaplain Assistant, there was no way that I could get an Airborne slot much less a Ranger slot. That pretty much deflated me. I really wanted both. But the good Lord kept an eye out for me. My first station is at Ft. Benning with the 4th RTB. I am now Cpt. Streucker's (I pray I am not butchering his name) Chaplain Assistant. I complete inprocessing today and have already been told that I can go Airborne and Ranger as soon as the other Chaplain Assistant gets back from his slots. So, technically I am not a DEP, but I am a DEP into the Ranger School, so I updated my introduction here vs. writing a new one in the Ranger section. I may wear the tan beret, but I am not tabbed, therefore I don't consider (and rightfully so) myself a full Ranger. I do get ten days permissive TDY starting tomorrow though, so I hope to get a glimpse of the Best Ranger Competition this year.

Congrats.
You got a good deal, your Chaplin is a stud. We've known each other for a long time.
If you show up on Todd Field or out at Darby I'll probably see you.
Oh yah, before I forget.....
I smell smoke. :D
