Nah-
Lots of Special Forces guys have gone to Ranger School and wear the tab. And quite a few people go from Ranger Batallions to Special Forces.

But it is true that there ain't no such thing as a "Special Forces Ranger".

I have no idea of what it is like now, but several of our senior NCOs and a few of our officers in the 1/75 back in the begining were ex-SF.....

And it is Camp McCall, not Mackay.

Did you know I had originally been asked to play the lead in that movie, but the director owed Hanks a favor, so I got passed over and that's when I went to the Balkans as a mercenary hit man under the guise of an internationally acclaimed goulash chef. I could tell you more, but I'd hate to hog the limelight when this *Ranger* has such an important story to tell....

LOL! You do that so well...

although I'm on sabbatical this week to drive in the Indianapolis 500....hope all you guys will be watching!

Oh man I would love to watch you but wouldnt you know it I was hand picked by a super secret government agency to test drive this top secret advanced rocket car at the bonneville salt flats that scientist reverse engineered from alien spacecraft kept at area 51 since world war two. I'm the only one that is qualified to drive it because I have seen every episode of the old speed racer cartoons on dvd 5 times and I really wouldnt want to let my country down in times of war to watch an auto race even if a freeper is in it. I hope you understand.

Hey....be safe in that rocket car....where does our country find men such as you? Every time I go up in that shuttle on a classified mission for the President or the SecDef, it makes it all worthwhile to look down on our country from up there in orbit, and know I'm doing it all for folks like you.

And you got five medals just for landing in Vietnam (oopsie, that was Kerry) and forgot how many you finally got in Vietnam.

And yet the liberals are so stupid they think this will pass?

IF we (the pajama squad) had not revealed him so quickly, how many MSM producers would have interviewed him?

How long would THEY have promoted him?

[Robert A Cook PE]

And just how many real vet's had "battle buddies" all their own?

How has the government treated you since you got back?
Like sh_t. I hate them. I’m not gonna be a terrorist or anything, but I hate them. They killed my battle brothers.

I did not know that. And someone who's been through both schools is a force to be reckoned with; not so much for their skills (though they are no doubt formidable) as for their determination.

And it is Camp McCall, not Mackay.

Thank you for the correction. Wonder why I was thinking Mackay...

[LegendHasIt]

There was a Camp Mackay in Kansas...

And one in Australia. ;-)

John Gibson on Fox News on this guy.

[LegendHasIt]

Yeah, got it on as I'm doing a new entry on it at my blog.

Thanks

[Anti-Bubba182]

Great! Looks like the guy was never in the Army, let alone the Rangers.
