First off thanks to all Ranger's past and present for the site its definitely a wealth of knowledge that could only be found here or regiment itself.

My Names Is SSG No slack
im 28 years old spent 8 years infantry then DA selected into recruiting(FML) Served 3 combat tours with the 101st(2-327 NFS) a few years down in NTC and am currently on my last year of recruiting ill be re enlisting in def in the first two weeks of October and im currently working on my packet to come join you Rangers in Regiment. I plan to serve the last 9 years of service to this great nation of ours as a Ranger and any advice you would have for someone coming into Regiment so late in the game would be much appreciated.

X-ray beat me to it. Attention to detail is a huge part of Rangering. Best start to learn it now.

You'll quickly find that this site is different than Facebook or Yahoo or whatever other Internet faggotry is out there. We take pride in the English language and professional standards.

It will be a VERY hard transition from recruiting to being a Ranger SL. I hope you have already started getting creative with your workouts. Make sure you are prepared for one of the steepest learning curves a guy can experience.

Wow. I assume you have a tab (I'm on taptalk and don't see sig lines). Yeah, you're gunna have to tighten up your shot group if you think you'll make it through RASPII. We expect and demand better than you've shown here from privates.

Going to be an import E-6 and spend the next nine years in the Regt? Good luck with that. To be honest, I'd be surprised you last a year, if you get through RASP.

Please, do prove me wrong. I'll shake your hand, buy you a beer, and no shit respect you if you can make a successful transition.

But all I can hear is the "back at Bragg" bird right now.

Like I said, prove me wrong. And as we tell DEPs all the time, don't tell us what you will do, show us.
