Introduction

[ASUlaxman]

I am a senior who is studying Exercise and Wellness at Arizona State University. After I graduate my goal is to serve as a medic in the 75th Ranger Regiment. I currently hold my NREMT-b certification, which is what sparked my interest to serve as a medic. I've taken the ASVAB and physical at MEPS, now I'm just waiting for the 68W option 40. I joined this forum to use the search function and further my knowledge about the SOF community. I look forward to serving our country.

Thank you for allowing me to be a member here

Marauder06 -
I have a strong urge to give back to America. We have an awesome country and it seems like the vast majority of people (my peers) take it for granted everyday. I wanna do my part as a citizen and give back in some way. Also, I feel that the amount of intangibles I can gain and grow as a person are exponentially greater in the military than elsewhere. I'm an optimist, and whatever happens while I'm in the army, I know I can grow from in one way or another. As far as enlisting over the officer route, my dream is to be a combat medic in the 75th. I've heard my fair share of opposition from other service members about going the enlisted route instead of OCS but I'm not doing it for the money or any other benefits. I expect that the army is going to get a lot more out of me that I am out of it. I'm enlisting simply to serve our country and grow as a person in the process.

Welcome and good luck. I was in PHX over Christmas stand down and now I'm back in Chicago. I miss being able to wear shorts/t-shirts in December and January...
