From the Author of The Mediocre Infantryman’s Guide to Ranger School
“Rangers Lead the Way!”
Let This Book Show You How.
If you’ve ever wondered what it really takes to earn that coveted Ranger tab, wonder no more. The Mediocre Infantryman’s Annotated Ranger Handbook is here to deliver unfiltered, no-BS wisdom from someone who’s been through the suck—not once, but twice. Ranger Goldsmith (roster #185, for those keeping track) brings his signature wit and sarcasm to this annotated version of the Ranger Handbook, turning military doctrine into a hilariously practical survival guide for the rest of us. You’ll find:
- Tips to Not Get Yourself Killed: There are a million ways to die at Ranger School.
- A Glossary of Terms Only a Ranger Could Love: What does “SLLS” mean? Why is “stand-to” the least fun thing you’ll ever do at dawn?
- The Real Priorities of Work: Spoiler alert: You’ll sleep when you’re dead.
- Gold Nuggets of Ranger School Lore: Includes why carrying the machine gun (and hating every second) might just make you a hero.
This isn’t your average manual. It’s like your slightly grumpy, always-funny squad leader scrawled notes in the margins just for you—because he wants you to succeed, and come back in one piece – or two pieces gun taped together.
Why is this the best book on the market? Because it’s not just theory—it’s annotated by someone who’s been there, done that, and lived to tell the tale. You’re not just learning the doctrine; you’re learning the real-life hacks to apply it when you’re neck-deep in mud and misery.
Don’t just be a soldier—be a Ranger. Or at least pretend you are with this book in hand.
