Welcome Ruffner,
I am only a FNG here, but I figured I would try and recruit some 2/75 guys that I know to get on here too.


Ruffner is good people. He hung out with Supercrash, who was one of my privates. Ruffner got there after I left Bn, but we know a lot of the same people.
I was in 2/75 from 97 to 00. 5-99


"He only loved people, he thought, who had fought or been mutilated. Other people were fine and you liked them and were good friends; but you only felt true tenderness and love for those who had been there and had received the castigation that everyone receives who goes there long enough."
