Rangers,
Been a while since I've posted a sitrep but here goes.
I recently graduated Armor bolc at the end of May and have now just finished week 1 here at Airborne. Also found out I'll be heading to the 173rd for my first duty station. After Airborne I have the reconnaissance course and finally head to Ranger school in September. I'm working hard to stay in shape here to prepare for whats coming as well as still learning my job everyday.

Rangers,
Quick update. Done with all my other training and just waiting for the September class to roll around. Also found out recently that we will be walking onto RTAC this Friday so it will all start here shortly! I'm thinking this will be a good experience because we didn't get too deep into infantry tactics here at abolc.

Ranger Jim,
Unfortunately I failed RTAC due to land nav. I did get good training out of the course though as I have a better understanding of what to expect during RAP week, even though I didn't make it to the patrolling portion. I'm still set to attend Ranger starting this Sunday. I'll make to sure to not make the same mistakes.
