Hello all.

Just wanted to drop in and say hi.

I served with the 82nd from 95-97 and various short joint assignments with the SOF community.

I never made it to Ranger school as I broke my back in Lawn Dart school in 91. :?

I really just wanted to say hi and keep up the good work.

Welcome and thank you for serving. If that video is the one I think it is - it's been posted here many times. In fact, the 'star' is a member of our forums.

Repost of link

Ranger Ruess,

I appologize for any reposting. My wife, also a jumping junkie from the past, sent it to me this morning. It is one of the best vids I have ever seen. Made me home sick quite bad.

Have a great day all.

The falling asleep part brought back fond memories of Sicily and Ft Chaffe, but damn that was a long decent. :P
