Call Uchee Creek camp ground. Excellent lodging and very cheap, way better than Olson hall! I am sure you should have no problem getting in there

Congrats to your son and you.

And Uchee Creek is excellent this time of year.

Why did a cold chill just go down my back??? Oh yeah, when we were students; how would you like to have "Uncle Bernie" report out to your parents? Thank God it is a kinder , gentler, more caring Ranger Department.

Congrats to your son 1SG, and if I may, Uchee Creek was beautiful to stay at this past weekend, so I doubt it'll change much in the next 7 days. :wink:

...think he is where I learned the phrase..."hows it feel to want". Standing in the chow line, he was there commenting on Rangers, doaling out pushups, ditch crawls....asked me some question which I got wrong...he said...."You Hongry, Ranger...yunt ta eat"? I said Yes, Sergeant. He said, "hows it feel to want bonehead....GET OUT OF MY CHOWLINE"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I almost fucking cryed.
