To be perfectly honest Ranger cryhavoc, that was/is the direction I was leaning towards when I registered here. I've still got another two or three weeks to think it over while I finish getting some loose ends tied up in my personal life, but I'm fairly certain at this point that this will be the path I take.cryhavoc wrote:SF is honorable...but becoming a ranger first will provide you with experience you cannot get from reading books. Alot of former batboys get into SF, after a few years in the regiment. It is alot easier to deal with adversity when it is the only way you know.

Thought I would update my status here.
Went to MEPS, got a 92 on the asvab, 129GT and 119CO scores.
Ship July 6th with an opt 40 contract.
A little disappointed with my PT, my APFT score is hovering around 250 still. Going to take that one short step at a time. Just got to add 1 rep to my PU a week, 1 SU every other week, and shave 5secs a week off my run time to be maxing out before OSUT is over, that seems pretty attainable.
Assuming all goes well, I'll hopefully see some of the other DEPS this fall at RIP. If all goes real well, you Rangers can take turns smoking me like a cheap cigar at batt. :)
