I heard the same thing. The fourth week is Advanced Marksmanship training or something. Anyone got any better intel on this topic?

Your friends are stupid. I was there with most of them I'm sure.

They have to ZERO their weapon for Day and Night. Just like you do in basic. You don't bring that rifle with you you know. You get a new one with your unit. I'm sure it seems advance to them from all the lasers flying around and the fact that they aren't being yeld at by ol' fat DS. Not only that, they didn't graduate till just this past friday(19th) And this Monday would be the "fourth" week. If they do any "advanced" training, it will be here with their team leaders foot up their ass.

Exactly! If they said RIP was five weeks, would you have second thoughts about going? "Well, gee, I was almost a Ranger, but then they increased the requirements from a three week RIP to five weeks, so I didn't go".

I'd do it if it was 12 weeks. I just don't know how to quit.

Looking back, I wish RIP was 2 months long, because I had such a fucking blast.

But like the other Rangers said, "WHO GIVES A FUCK". Get down and do flutterkicks until your nuts burst!

I did, but the 11b's did not. But with the numbers coming through it may have changed.
