Hello All!
I am a retired US Army Ranger with just a little over 21 yrs of service. I was a Master Sergeant before I got out, and I got to keep the same job...just now I come to work as "Mister".
I teach youngins how to jump out of planes, and the not so young ones to be instructors. Although it seems they just keep getting younger as well!
Good to be here and can't wait to talk to all of you as the days go buy. I know there are days of "Hey, you know that one guy?" ahead of us all.

Let me know if I can ever be of help, Sean :drink

I think the steps are really nice. Super strong and too easy to put on. No drilling or anything. I got a smokin deal and FREE shipping from Realtruck.com...nice folks there too.

Nice to hear from all of you. This seems to be a great site and I look forward to meeting everyone as I get a little smarter about my truck. I'm really new to diesels, and am loving my new truck so far.:drink

What do I need to do to get into the club? I just got back from Iraq and Afghanistan. My R&R ends today and go back to bending wrenches on the flight line. How do I get the National Defense Ribbon on my profile?

Welcome to the forum.
This is a terrific site with a ton of info.
I think it's great that you were able to retire and continue your work at the HALO school!
My "coke bottle" glasses only allowed me to jump from 1200' with a leash vs 25000' !!
I have lots of respect for you guys.
Again welcome.

Thanks for the welcome!
