Welcome to the site Will, you're the first Redhawk graduate I've seen on here. I don't have to tell you that your PT scores suck. You've got 4 months to get yourself into the best shape you've ever been in. It is a hard task, but not impossible. Right now, up here in the northwest, the weather sucks and it's raining all of the time. I would recommend if you don't do your PT outside, start now, embrace the suck, learn to ignore the elements and drive on. If nothing else learn to run in the rain. The first task I require of you is to find out who MG Patrick Henry Brady is and come back on here with a write up on him. HINT; he's one of your alumni. Give everything you've got, every time you give and never, ever quit. RLTW

Took less than a minute. BTW, I worked with him as a member of the Army Staff.

PM from Will:

Ranger Jim,

I am back from Europe and in the middle of getting everything stored/secured and spending my last days with family and friends prior to my upcoming ship date of 18 May 2015. I didn't know where would be best to post this, so I figured a PM would do for now.
I am also returning to work on my task list and have been exercising consistently.

A day or two before I ship for BCT, I will start a thread in Letters from School.

Thanks for your instruction and the time you spend helping us wanna-be's.

-Will

Look forward to your initial letter from school SITREP. Never, never quit!
