SITREP: Basic Jump School

Post by simpson »

Rangers,

Ground week is done and we are into the second day of tower week. Tomorrow is the 250 footer, and the 35 foot mass exit. All and all this is an easy school. I have had no problems or setbacks so far other then some knee pain (I think its just a case of SIMPS).

As always I would like to thank those who have given me inspiration (I.E. everyone on this board who had Ranger written under there screen name.) Its good to be training again. Next stop RIP.

Good on ya young Soldier. Just remember to keep up with the extra PT while in Airborne School......anybody can fall out of an aircraft while in fright, it takes something else to be a Ranger!
