Ummm First you would have to join the Army, Pass Basic Combat Training, Complete Airborne School, get assigned to a unit and then compete for a Ranger school position. By then you won't be worried about it.

Also in the Air Force there are a certain number of slots for specific AFSC that can go to the ranger school. Of course you need commander signature and need to pass the 12 day air force pre ranger trial before you go to real ranger school. I've just started training to get where i need to be so ill be as ready as i can before i apply in about 18 months. REally wierd how it works. There was a person from my base here at Eglin that went through the program a bit ago. It seems you are air force yet wear the Tab, still tasked to your air force unit but them randomly re-tasked when the ranger unit needs you.

Were you trying to set a posting record? Were you seeing if your fingers could go numb? Are you a total fucking retard? Well, let me tell you what... If I see that you are continuing your posting of this type of shit, knowing no more than you know, speaking out of your ass... It will indeed be my distinct pleasure to roll shadow of what once was your space here. Hitting only the pothole that was you... Sloshing out the mud that was your shortlived existance among us. For here, we don't like loudmouths, braggarts, retards, fags, fucktards, hippies, shitheads, fuckmaggots, braindead hippy biatches, fence straddlers or you. Now just keep that in mind before you next post some drivel that no one wants to read anyway.

The skinny guys get to smell the ammonia first. The smell takes longer on fat guys because they have fat to burn. The skinny guys smell it in the first week or so. You'll start to smell ammonia, do not worry its just your body eating you're muscle. Its really unhealthy and will make you smell like piss where ever you go. Good Luck :D :D :D :D :D

:oops: This guy is just pretending to be in the air force... please tell me he is not a cop.

This information is false. No Air Force Rangers are "randomly re-tasked" when the ranger unit needs you. I know an Air Force Ranger that was an instructor at Ranger School, but thats it.

I personnaly love that smell. I was wondering when it was going to come as a cologne. Ode de Drunken Bumb Sleeping in Own Piss is too long a name I guess. Oh well, I can still dream.........
