What's going on Rangers-

Been browsing the site for a little while and decided to join. Quick history, did ROTC at Vanderbilt and graduated in '05 branched Armor. Went to Armor OBC at Ft. Knox, then did the Scout Leader Course, and then down to Benning for Ranger School and graduated last month with class 6-07. Arrived at Ft. Bragg a few weeks ago and just became the Platoon Leader for an Infantry Scout Platoon with C TRP, 3-73 CAV, 1BCT. This RSTA Squadron is just being stood up so I'm not sure if I'm going to stay with the Infantry troop or be moved over to one of the mounted CAV troops later on down the line - either one is fine with me. I know I need an avatar so I'm going to try to square that away right now.

Halfway down the trail to hell
In a shady meadow green,
Are the souls of all dead troopers camped
Near a good old-time canteen
And this eternal resting place
Is known as Fiddler's Green.

Marching past, straight through to hell,
The infantry are seen,
Accompanied by the Engineers,
Artillery and Marine,
For none but the shades of Cavalrymen
Dismount at Fiddlers' Green.

Though some go curving down the trail
To seek a warmer scene,
No trooper ever gets to Hell
Ere he's emptied his canteen,
And so rides back to drink again
With friends at Fiddlers' Green.

And so when man and horse go down
Beneath a saber keen,
Or in a roaring charge or fierce melee
You stop a bullet clean,
And the hostiles come to get your scalp,
Just empty your canteen,
And put your pistol to your head
And go to Fiddlers' Green.
