I have to finish the Mountain and Florida phase. Any of you have any stories that have been through Ranger School?

No stories, but a mountain of respect and admiration.

What do the Mountain and Florida phases entail?

Florida phase doesn't include mountains

Might have to fend off face eating zombies on bath salts & over zealous neighborhood watch patrolmen

Mountain phase (phase 2) is conducted in Dahlonega, GA. It entails mountains, mountains, as more mountains. Walking up the mountains conducting battle drills, it sucks and I have to do it again, it broke my body down worse then ever before.

Florida (phase 3) consists of conducting battle drills in the swamps. Haven't been yet. Both phase are 3 weeks long each, no sleep, no food.

appreciation and best of luck to ya

My son made it through the first time. Grimmest stories from mountain phase. Wet, cold, climbing, marching, until operating on pure instinct.

68 guys recycled Mountains in class 2, 90 recycled Darby. It's been a blood bath.

Congrats btw, much respect.

Congrats to your son, much respect to him as well. Mountains has been one of the worst experiences but I will say that I felt like it wasn't that bad. Having to do it again, I now feel like it was that bad lol.

Never done anything like, so...

Good luck, sometimes I wish I had the fortitude to do it. I have the physical skills, but not the mental toughness.

In the past I worked an ED in Dahlonega. I have seen rangers so tired they would sleep through broken bones with absolutely no pain meds. Much respect for anyone who goes through the ranger training.

If you crap out a second time, just resign. You'll never do anything interesting again.

I hope you're not starting immediately. North Georgia is cold as a MFer right now.
