Being in Battalion is the best thing I've ever done. Good luck with your training and if you make it and get to deploy you will understand.

I was thinking the same thing ....I bet blood vessels are starting to rupture in CAMS eyes ....

Pretty close Sarnt Major.

(I know some of the Rangers here are doing the right thing though by mentoring these kids and trying not to run 'em off too quick so I'm doing my best to fall in line with that.)

Couple of beers and a yard sale for my kitchen chair therapy and I'll be fine.

1. It was cold as hell
2. We walked FOREVER
3. I was awake for damn near 72 hours
4. The bird almost crashed
5. Using the term "controlled descent" when fastroping is a lie

Wasn't gonna rise to the bait but WTF - should also include:

- it never stopped raining
- the bugs/leeches were sucking us dry
- the terrain absolutely sucked
- they said it was 800 AGL but I hit as soon as I tried dropping my ruck
