What's your longest hike with a heavy pack?

it looks like one guy was Airborne and went to Ranger school, but from Rangers I've talked to RASP is the official Ranger training.

I never had to do/carry any of that crap, thank God. My time was spent in the bellies of submarines.

@Bushman rest assured that everyone here is and has done what they say. If not Stomper would hunt them down and well Stomp them

Although I don't need to explain myself, I wasn't SF, Ranger, or any other SO type and never claimed to be. I was just another "super-grunt" in the wrong place at the wrong time who had the benefit of some excellent training by the best NCO's ever to wear a uniform.

There's a reason the U.S. Military was, is, and will be the most lethal all-volunteer force in all of human history... I dare say that a lot of our "line troops" and units are better than most other country's "SF"... IMNHO

I was just listening how some residents in the Montavilla neighborhood are complaining about all the homeless poop in their bushes.. while in San Francisco, they'll DNA test dog poop they find on the sidewalk to levy a fine on the owner.. or to find the cure for retardation.

 

[Stomper]

The cure is any caliber you have on hand.

I love being out at sea, but I certainly wouldn't want to be IN the sea.

Respect. I saw how cramped those things are, wouldn't want to spend that time in one.
