Choose it for me wrote:Hello everyone. I am a highschool student interested in being in the Army. Hopefully SOCOM community but probably not yet (citizenship issues). But I'll take what I can get. Have to get in the Army first before anything happens!!!!! There is not a day that I don't think of being in the Army(and it probably gets me through the day), holding a gun running through the woods, gliding down onto my objective in a chopper, being with my brothers, it just literally fills my heart up. This is what i've always wanted!!!! HOOAH!!!!! I'd jump up and go right now if i could, but I can't :( But I try not to say this at school too much cause I'll probably seem like some kind of psyhco to the pussy hearing it. :twisted:
Anyways, I came to this site to find out as much information as I can on serving in this elite organization, and the training, schools, selections, jobs etc... and I've found alot of good info, and I'd like keep on learning all I can. Cause I don't know shit! I wanna hear all I can from all you Rangers, men who have been there and done that. Men whose accomplishments I can only hope to achieve. So i'll probably be putting up posts and asking alot of questions to learn anything and everything.
So thank you for your time Rangers.

I took the liberty to highlight the funny part of your introduction. The rest of us carry a weapon. a gun is used for fun in town when you get liberty.

SFC Hit_It

Thanks very much for looking at my intro and taking your time to post on it. Unfortunately i don't have a green card. I know i need it to get into the army, but ive been hearing alot on this site about how easy it is to get it. But i've also been snooping around on immigration sites and it looks like the only way i'll be able to get it is through finding a job here. So while i'm in high school i'll be taking info tech/business classes through a partnership with a local college (maybe i'll be able to find a job down in the states in the tech/business sector) and also be apprenticing as a marine engineer. After highschool my dad is recommending I go to a nearby polytechnic college to take marine engineering since that kind job is really in demand and so when I finish i'll have a really good chance of finding a job, plus I'll be leaving with a degree. I'm really set on that and i'll probably do it unless a faster green card route comes along. I know this seems a pretty farfetched process, and if you, SFC Hit_It, or anyother Rangers have any ideas or something to say on this just give me a shout. If this is what it takes to join the U.S. Army and be an Army Ranger, so be it!!!

OK, you have a plan. Good start. Others have already made the point. This site will give you hours of reading, some of it will be very worthwhile.
If you're serious about SOF, then you need to be serious about the listen & learn advice you've been getting.
Now, shuffle on down to the PT/workout forum & do some reading there.
Then get your young ass in shape. Once you think you're in shape, you're ready to begin getting in shape. It will have to be part of your lifestyle and being.
What grade are you in?
I'm not wishing you luck, you're going to make your own luck.

If you're going to become butt buddy's, do it on your own dime and in your own fucking area. Take it to PM's. Sometime soon you need to refresh yourself on the fucking part where you were told quite clearly to read alot, post a little... You are turning into a retard rapidly.
