 They're more likely to rush to the sound of gunfire. When you get out there and you've got guys that you have spent years with, they become your family and you know that you would go to any length for them to make them safe. Because somebody has to do this and because this country needs this, this country needs to be defended. It does take a special sort of type of person. The last thing I want is for somebody to walk away from this contest and say, you know, that was nothing. I could have done that in my sleep. The winner is going to have to hold a measure of technical expertise combined with a lot of endurance and the desire to never stop. It absolutely helps you push your limits. Everything we do as a ranger is finding out where that line is, where your body says no and pushing past it and proving to yourself that really you're only limited by what you let yourself be limited by. A compassionate heart, a sound mind, a skilled hand, a deadly shot and yes a strong back. Shoot, move, communicate, survive, save and adapt. That's our art and that's our science. There's a standard that you're held to and I think that's why the Ranger Regiment is such a great place to grow up and learn medicine. You need to be physically and mentally and know your job well enough to where you can come to something like this and not only be somewhat competitive but possibly win it.
