Things you did or brought to Ranger School to help yourself? ( I will be going very shortly )

I am finally back. I have been away for a while. I just completed Ranger School and graduate on Friday. I am one of the few National Guard officers there and have learned so much. It is truly a leadership school without a doubt. Going into it I thought I knew all about it but I did not. There is so much more than you may see. It is one of those things that unless you have been there you may not understand.

Here is some information for those that want to go to Ranger School. You can post information here about your questions about Ranger and ask any questions that may have.

Among those of us who have been, want to go, or just find it interesting what are your impressions of Ranger School. I have come to find out only 17 percent of the army infantry NCO's are Ranger Qualified. This is the lowest it has just about ever been. The Army is pushing hard to increase that number. I have two tours in combat as an NCO and I can say that I still learned a lot at Ranger School.
