It has been a long since I posted here, and i have come a long way with still more to go.

I will update my progress as a means to show anyone starting out where I started three years ago that it is a process and that you have to remain hungry but progress does come.

I am currently in IBOLC and I will be attending Ranger School in April. As of right now I am slated to go to an R&S squadron for a BfSB. When I get my tab (Surrender is not a Ranger word) I am hoping to join their LRS troop.

Looking forward to joining another prestigious and honorable fraternity (Ranger qualified soldiers).

Just remember the 6th principle of patrolling:
In Ranger school, there is no such thing as patrolling, only running from artillery

Good luck, make them kill you before you even think of quitting!

I graduated yesterday with class 08-12. I recycled MTNS after falling on Yonah and breaking my tailbone. I can say I literally busted my ass to get my tab. RLTW! Never Quit!

Any phase worth doing is worth doing a second time. I pinched a nerve in the mountains and had to do it again, Then made it through Florid. Excellent SITREP, Ranger!
