    Three lieutenants in my EOBC class volunteered for Drum as a way to get to Ranger School. The problem was that there wasn't enough time between EOBC graduation and RIP to go to Airborne School, so they had to go to Ranger Schools as legs. And then go to Drum. FTN.

    My son's hand vs a leaf spring on a big truck:



    The fingertip is staying attached for now.... might have to get a pin to get the bone to go back together.

    Oh, and I was gonna yell at him, but apparently the ring wasn't on until they were heading to the ER.

    Ouch. Hopefully he doesn't lose it. Hope he heals up well!

    ETA: Just dawned on me which finger based on the wedding ring. Maybe they can splint it and he can walk around giving everyone the finger?

    Yeah, it's currently splinted, they are hoping the bone will close up with it splinted without the pin.

    Sucks for him because he had just moved to texas to start a brand new job... accident happened about 3 weeks on the new job.

    So far they are taking care of him, paying all the medical bills, on workmans comp for the next couple weeks
