  My name is Daniel Aaron Loveland II. I am 17 years old and I am a senior at Cassville Highschool in Cassville, MO. It has been my dream since I was a child, to be an Army Ranger. I have been training every day for the past 4 years, for the day I go through the Ranger Indoctrination Program. I am a devout Christian.

  Daniel, you will love the training that awaits you! God will always be with you even when you are tired and hungry and when the days run into night! HE will be right there! HAve you spoken to a recruiter yet? If not, you can start a dialogue with myself at roy.kuhn@usarec.army.mil and I will be glad to assist you in making your dreams a reality by putting you in touch with the the right recruiter for your area. GOd Speed and I look forward to hear from you!

  Daniel, "Rangers Lead the Way!" If you have been training for 4 years to be ready for the Ranger Indoctrination Program, then you should have some very hard feet (lots of ruck marching with 30-50 lbs on your back and marching 15-25 miles frequently), some well-broken-in boots and now all you need is a hard mind that absolutely never, ever, ever accepts failure. If you are there, and can pass the Army PT test with a smoking 290+ every time, you will soon be an Army Ranger and join us in defending our American freedoms when all the rest of our awesome Army sleeps. We own the night brother, some come join our team and get ready to kick down some doors coming in from the sky at a low-level 500 feet, mass tactical, weapon uncased and on burst only seconds after you hit the ground.

  Hi Daniel,

  For fun today I googled my name, Daniel Loveland, and found you. We share the same first and last name. One of my hobbies is family genealogy.

  The only reason I contacted you is because I saw your Cummins' logos on your profile page. My great uncle was Harry Cummins. He invented the Cummins' diesel engine. It was kind of wild to see how all these coincidences came together out of the blue.

  I see that you are in high school and looking forward to graduating and joining the service. Congratulations.

  I am a teacher and designer, but graduated from high school long ago.

  Good luck with your career.

  Daniel Loveland
