In the memory of one of our esteemed brothers who just went to the ORP in the sky, let me be the first one to tell you this. We frown upon you using the phrase "Rangers Lead The Way" before you have earned the privilege to do so.

You also need to keep you answers as short and sweet as possible. "Roger, Ranger so-and-so..Negative, Ranger such-and-such.."

Unless asked to, you don't need to elaborate on anything, because we don't care. We don't care about it because doesn't matter. Seek out a mentor. Just do what you are told, in a timely fashion. You will be given time-hacks for a reason. Read much, post little, and stay in your lane. Don't be in a hurry to sign anything. You will need to be able to score 100% for each event in your age group for the PT test. If you can wait that long, knock out 2 years worth of college classes before you go. You will get rank quicker, and that equals pay! Don't stand out too much. Just do your job quietly & without fanfare.

Long and short; be the grey man.

Leonardo,

A few things first I second whole heartedly what Sleepy Doc says so watch what you say. Second I have an idea about the Navy Nuclear program so why off hand would you go from that to an 11x Opt 40? No offense to the 11x guys but of you are as smart as you say you are why are your stopping at that? If you have done some homework you will see that there are a few others that go right along with them to do the things they do while doing other things as well.

RLTW!
