My son has been on leave recently and was telling me that the second night after returning from a deployment, he and a couple of his buddies were visiting a nightclub in Columbus.
There were several guys sitting at a table next to them and my son overheard one of them telling the waitress that they were Rangers and had just returned from Iraq. My son turned to one of them and asked what Battalion they were with and the guy told him he couldn't say. When asked where they were stationed and the guy replied that it didn't matter, my son turned to his buddies and said " looks like we have some "real" Rangers here at the next table to us, maybe we should buy em a beer." Well it seems that these guys were pretending to be the wrong thing, at the wrong time, and wrong place that night. I will not go into much detail here but I think everyone here can picture the outcome. I will say I believe these guys will remember their night out drinking with the Rangers for a long, long time to come.

Thank you for sharing that. That is funny. Know one really knows who is sitting or standing next to them should they decide to open their mouths. I hope he enjoyed it!!!!

Me and my buddy and my woman are at this bar up in Washington....guy and this girl sit down at the table next to us...Guy has a yellow lowering line thing as a keychain, as a lot of guys do...(I do.).......anyhow, he has a scroll sewn on his.....
So me and my buddy are speaking loudly about wether or not he has his coin......so we start playing with ours...at first spinning them, then trying to bounce them like a game of quarters....no response......
We keep this up, while my woman is getting embarrassed as hell..........we are convinced this guy is either a poser, or doesn't have his coin, as we are making a ruckus, even though the bar is loud.......Finally I slam my coin down as hard as I could, and it just so happens to fly over and hit the guys beer glass.....
Like a true Ranger, he turns ready to fight, until he saw what it was.....
Beer was on us that night!!!
Thanks for the story Proud Dad!
