My response was to the other person that posted, who thought I was referring to the name change. I'm still working on the PT. 300 is always the goal. Thanks for the sobering honesty.

I don't know why I bother but here goes anyway. TS - You should get out more often. You actually sound mellow. (Or you're setting an ambush - more likely.) Obviously the Blade Show was good for you. (At least you looked like you were having a good time!  )
Commando - The ice you're skating on is not frozen. There are reasons you were able to sign on as "Commando" on a military oriented forum. The QPs have all earned their screen names and nobody else (that wants to be taken seriously) would use one that is so obviously "wannabe". If you can't take a hint, go back to the paintball boards and play with your peers. And no - TS was not kidding about the PT scores. Less than a 300 means that you do not have the extra capacity to endure when daily activities demand 100% performance. BTW - I wouldn't advise jerking TS's chain the same as I wouldn't advise kicking a sleeping Rotweiller. FWIW - Peregrino
Edited to add - I've got to learn to type faster. Looks like this has already been taken care of. P

My appologies to all the real proffessionals. It was poor judgement on my part to use the name, which was given to me by an old military guy here at work that I am good friends with. No offense intended.

TFM,
I would HIGHLY recommend utilizing the "Grey Man" technique for a while. It will be good practice for your future endeavors.
Definitions of GREY MAN on the Web:
* A concept used by undercover agents and plain clothes police on covert a ctivities. Basically don't draw attention to yourself, dress blandly, act blandly, be as inconspicuous as possible. And keep away from kids - who like drawing attention to themselves and others.
Good Luck

Good MORN, AFTERNOON or what have you,
Its a great site from what I've searched over so far. There is much more to look over I'm sure.
My current position is Ground Combat Skills Instructor, and I'm dying to get back out there!
Glad to be here, looking forward to meeting everyone. Thanks for the opportunity to post here.

Welcome abaord all!
Been busy making sparks, haven't kept up with my homework here.
I've noticed some advice offered in the last page or two. I haven't seen the Team Sergeant display this level of patience ever.

Fonzy:
Congrats to your family for their service.
This board is not the informal place you may think it is. Please limit your profanity, text message abbreviations, and spelling/punctuation errors.
I urge you to try again and write more like you would in a note to your Professor of Military Science.
Being a soldier is all about discipline, attention to detail, and situational awareness. People die because of those mistakes and we are rather intolerant of them here.
Have a very SF Day.
