Hello,
I would like to introduce myself. My name is Rod. I served in the 1/75 from 1980 to 84. I was with Aco weapons platoon as the FDC for most of the first three years and then I moved to HHC in the S-3 shop for the last year.
I was a winter Ranger and attended Ranger Class 3-81. In 83 i think, a SFMTT came to Hunter and a bunch of us went through a Jumpmaster course. I ended up with senior wings.
I look back on the time I spent in the Rangers and the time since and realize what a huge influance it had on me. I miss the people most of all. It was an Honor to serve with the Men of the 1/75 and I look forward to talking to some of them again on the forum.
Thank you, Rod

Re: Intro from MichRanger
Thank you for the welcome everybody.
It was quite a surprise to hear from you Tater Nuts. You left some pretty big boots to be filled as an FDC but I gave it my best effort. It was a privilege learning from you.

Welcome to the site. I came into Batt in May 84 and was assigned to HHC, Commo, out of RIP, I'm sure we must have crossed somewhere along the way.
