Hello Rangers,
My name is Jon, I am in the DEP and ship out for basic January 15, 2013. I am a college graduate from Limestone College. I am 25 and currently work a desk jockey job in NYC. I have an 11x contract with no option. I am Working real hard to get ready for basic and be a stud there so I can get one while at basic.
I am looking forward to being on this site and gaining a wealth of knowledge from current and past Rangers. I am especially looking for advice on how to increase my P/T scores and my running endurance.
P/t Test 10/1/2012
Push-ups - 76
Sit-ups - 64
2 mile - 14:33
Thank you.

Thought Limestone College was a girl's school in SC. At least, it was when I lived there in '67-'70. Wofford was the guy's school.

Ranger Lefty, Limestone College use to be a all girls school until around the late 60's. Was recruited to play lacrosse down there.
