We got a cherry ....

Post by abnrgr73 »

Alright, I found this site a few days ago and it seems interesting. I'm not that old, but when I was living in Savannah, Ga. at B Co. we didn't have computers in our rooms, or none of that cell phone crap. We had what we called 'CQ' and your messages were taken on scratch paper using a pen. So my point is, it took me a while to find this place... WWWWOOOO!! RANGER !!!

Does anyone ever remember that crazy ass guy, who was my platoon sergeant.... SFC Mendoza ?? He was the funniest fucker I ever met, and the last I remember of him was in about 1992 he PCS to Italy. Either way, funny dude.

Many more stories to follow....

Welcome fellow 1st Batt'r!
Civilians, will never understand us. Our desire to be at the worst possible place at the exact wrong time because we hope to make a difference even if it costs us our lives, are incomprehensible to them. And yet it is so. Our prayer is not, please God, let it happen on my day off; but please God, don't let me screw this up.

The way I became a Ranger and have earned the small amount of success I have had in life has been mostly due to one quality - determination. Lefty.
