Hello, Rangers.
My name is Ovidiu (in Romanian), but you can call me John, because is easier. I'm a 1st LT in the Romanian Army (Mountain Troops) and I always wanted to become a Ranger. So, this year in January I think, a way for fulfilling my dream opened. I requested to attend the Ranger Course in 2009 at Fort Benning. But, in order to do that, I have to pass the PT test and the English language test, which are going to be in October this year. So, I work hard almost every day and I'm trying to perfect my English.
I will try not to bother you, Rangers with questions that have already been posted and answered, but if I do, please don't be mad on me. Anyway, thank you Rangers for your future help, and ... RANGERS LEAD THE WAY!!!

You know Marius Ion?
He and I went through RIP together and were assigned to the same platoon.
You want to see someone appreciate this country, serve with a kid who was a first generation American. His parents migrated here from Romania.
Absolute fucking Stud at about 5'4". Sadly, liquor would be his downfall back when Hunter was a closed post.

No, Ranger RangerJurena. Unfortunately I don't know Marius Ion. Is he an American now? In Romania I believe we have only 8-10 Rangers, so I will ask about him.
No, Ranger rgrpuck, I haven't served in Afghanistan, yet. My unit did that last year, but I couldn't go because I got married, and my wife said that if I go to Afghanistan, she won't marry me ever. But I'm an officer for only 3 years, so I have a long way ahead to serve my country in the Operations Theaters.
