Good attitude.
Let us know which battalion you get - and if it's in the 82d or 173d. :twisted:

Seriously, just keep that attitude.

This is another one of those topics where I sit back, have my coffee, think about my turn through RIP and I think to myself "Go get 'em dude!" And it's immediately followed by "Been there and done that. Better you than me!". I'm glad I did RIP and I'm happy that I'll never do it again.

I'm thinking that it will be much more than 60...
WE NEED MORE RANGERS!

Indeed.
Yep, here it is on Day 2, 0930. I'm sitting here, cuppa coffee & feet up, just out of bed. And like the '80s recruiting commercial said "In the Army, you do more by 9AM than most people do all day" :P
He's got me beat :lol:

The Holmchicken expressed my sentiments perfectly.
