Introduction

Post by Brad27 »

Hi,
My name is Brad, and I am 16 years old. I am a Junior in Highschool, in which my favorite class is Automechanics. I've been reading this forum for about a month now, and felt it was time to get signed up. I too, wish to bear the Ranger Tab on my shoulder someday. It will be a hard task, but I believe I can attain it.

I would like to say thank you to all the Rangers and members of this forum for posting up as much information as they have. I would also like to say thank you to all our Servicemen for their service and sacrifices. It does not go un-noticed.

Respectfuly and gratefuly,
Brad

Damn; that has to be one of the best intros from a 16 y/o that has ever graced our doorstep (that I can remember).

Don't make me have to re-evaluate my assessment of you...

Thank you all very much for all of the welcomes. Ranger Saltbitch, thank you for the compliment, I will do my best to not disapoint you nor anyone else. I intend to read, heed and learn. And that is it.

Respectfuly and gratefuly,
Brad

For the purposes of clarification, there's much more to it than "wearing the Tab." It''s a mindset and a lifestyle, and there's a BIG difference in wearing the tab (being Ranger qualified) and actually BEING a Ranger.

That being said - welcome and drive on!
