Glad to see you’re back man. I’m a prior service Marine going back into the army with a 13F Op 40. Funnily enough just went back to MEPs right before you posted this. Your videos have definitely given me clarity on what to expect and how to alter my training. Keep it up 🤙🏼
Hey dude! I’m thinking of doing the exact same thing but I’m torn between an 11x op 40 and 13F. How do you like the 13F so far? I’m assuming you’re probably about in rasp by now lol
@@zachthedangerrangerI should clarify, didn’t mean to be misleading, I was never IN RRC, my fire team got pulled to go up and imbed with them doing low-vis stuff with them in MEZ surveying targets
Good to see new episodes coming out. The whole Ukraine shit is wild. It’s like watching WW1 with modern technology like you guys were saying. Also very wild to see all of the HD footage all over social media, watching war while I’m scrolling through my phone.
Hey man , Names Christian , I was in STB as a medic. Ended up getting Rfs’d at the end of Socm for wearing a ski mask in the B’s hahah , but I would love to maybe have a chance to spread some knowledge to young guys looking into going down that route and things they should do to prepare for Socm and things to avoid when they get to Socm and RASP. Hopefully Save a couple dudes from getting RFS’d haha
I don't believe there is a way to mentally and emotionally have the trust necessary between men and women in combat in my 50 year, educated opinion. Society has put men into positions of being constantly hypervigilant about every move and word around women. There needs to be moments of being emotionally unguarded. It's not possible with mixed units. It's sad. It's also sad an obviously dedicated, persistent strong man wasn't wanted bc of a neck tatt but they take bros with fake tits in dresses. Thank you all for being men enough to ignore the bullshit and still be badasses. You're admired and so appreciated. #oversharing 😂
Good to see ya brother. I’ve been dying to do milsimwest, maybe some day BJ hated everyone. He was my intro to B co. Definitely went hands on after a few drinks 😂 I thought you were pretty squared away coming in to BN
6 year Prior Service navy guy going in, was interested in TACP but didn’t want to be attached to big army. Had an 11x Op 40, literally swapped to a 13f Op 40 after I found out it was available for prior service.
@user-no5cy5hy5h in regular army, all the fucking time so long as you're with a line unit. Rangers? I assume all the damn time lol waiting on rasp as a 13F myself. See you on Sill. 😈
@@Fyiaa95 18X does initial training as infantry, sometimes SFAS failures get a RASP option but usually needs of the army at that point. 13F Opt 40 will do initial training as a 13F
Ill make it I’m training every day except Sunday, studying and learning every aspect of being a ranger, learning from you on the videos. And already have a plan to live on base, save every penny, use the money to put down on a house in Helen ga, rent it out as a vacation rental through a rental agency that take 30 percent and I get 70 they clean and take care of everything and money comes in. What’s your personal record for 12 miles?
Hey boss, I love your channel as it’s honestly the best for representing the Ranger Regiment in my opinion. I wanted to ask as I served previously as an 11B and was curious as far as picking a duty station? Do you get to pick or make a wish list to which Regiment one wishes to go to?
Basic at Jackson is a complete shit show. I had a few Fisters in my company, they were the only mos that was probably gonna see combat it just have sucked way more for them knowing how much they were missing out.
I was an airsofter before I was in the Army, lol. I will always talk shit about airsofters, because I am one. If you can't make fun of yourself or talk shit on yourself, then you suck. Also, get over yourself. It's not that serious 😂
@@theblackrifle7824 not really, you cared enough to make a stupid comment about narcissist behavior. The only person that should calm down is you, lol. I simply responded. You should probably seek a safe space.

Honestly really cool knowing Shawn even just from RR and MSW. Great dude.

Best job I ever had. I was up in MEZ with RRC when he was in BAF.
Hellll yeah that’s gnarly. Would be dope to have you on the pod if you’re game!

Shawn is an awesome dude, great choice of guest. Could listen to him tell stories all day.
Went to RASP with Shawn back in the day, and he’s cool asf!
Would be rad to see you get a Ranger medic on here. Leave in May as a 68w opt 40 and would love to hear about SOCM and daily life in rgt as a medic!!

Bro if he ain’t gonna put you on we need to exchange info and you can tell me, I’d greatly appreciate 😂
Can’t wait to get an option 40 in two years!
You dropped while I was in the middle of Linkin Park's "Soldier". Perfect coincidence.

Great podcast, you should definitely come out and join the ranks of the F-tier Ranger internet celebrities.
It’s gonna happen. In a related vein we should get you on the podcast soon too
@@zachthedangerranger Yeah man that would be a blast
Awesome podcast, super cool to hear Shawn's story. I'm excited to hear about Ben and see you at MSW!

I had to go next, couldn’t ha for all the “bros”. Toss in a buddy, pal, friend, dude. Come on bro! 😎
Would love to hear you get an interview with an Intel guy Ranger from RMIB.
I agree
My guy! Love ya son❤️👊🏻
Love you momma
just sighed up as a 13F
Hell yeah!
So I can enlist as 13f with an option 40 or 18X contract? I assume if you fail selection you just get kicked back to your original job?

Regiment sends you where they want. Which is three places, two of which are in GA
Yep, you do fill out a wish list in RASP but assignments are based on manning reqs at each battalion
Fuck yeah!

very nise
Shawn needs to meet Train Like a Rangers guys! All three are Foxes!
I'd absolutely love to meet em
Hey can you interview a CBRN IN 75th RR🔥🔥🔥
I'll try, those guys are super rare to come by unfortunately.
I’m sure Shawn has a few. I doubt I still have their contacts

Most ppl bragging it up on IG or youtube isnt doing their job properly
Good thing we’re not most people
What does that even mean? 😂
