Proper etiquette question;

Is it proper for a non-Ranger such as myself to greet a Ranger with "RLTW"? I am guessing the answer is no, since if it was me on the other side, I would immediately inquire if you were a Ranger?

Ran into a guy from 1st Battalion today while I was getting coffee and this vexed me a bit.

Not sure I want to say "Nice legs" to a Ranger holding Starbucks coffee that is about 1 degree below boiling point. Maybe I will just stick with Hello. :roll:

" RANGER POLICE "


Stopped a 17 year old kid tonight for speeding, 81 M.P.H. in a 60 zone. Kid spots my Ranger Scroll & Tab on the back of my ticket book and says, " Oh, you're a Ranger ? Still on active duty ? "

:shock:

I reply, " Yeah, Rangers help out the local police whenever we can " and walk away. 8)

Ya can't fix stupid.
