any NSF in ur battalion went for the ranger course?Originally posted by Gedanken:Two absolute pros and absolute gentlemen, to be sure.
My company was supposed to be the pilot batch, and my buddy and I signed up for it. Organising NS Rangers took more organising than they originally thought, so it got scrapped for my company and the guys who enlisted a year after me ended up being the first NS Rangers.Originally posted by will4:any NSF in ur battalion went for the ranger course?

Hey kiddo, its not as if every single jumper had zero fear of heights. During my course there were a few guniang (READ: SCARED GIRLS) riggers who still made the jump and landed safely with nothing more than a bruised bum for one or two of 'em.
[b]Oh well, since I guess you only noticed my post instead of the clear answer spelt out in ditzy's earlier post, my apologies then for diverting your attention from the answer you so desperately (and probably unneccessarily) seek.
Oh, btw this cbk, together with Ged and all the others, had been crazy enough to jump out of a fully functioning aircraft with nought but some strings and a piece of cloth on our backs. I said it once and I'll say it again, nothing else seems fun after that.[/b]
