That reminds me of the time, back in 1966, at Fort Benning, GA, when I was a 2nd Lt going through IOBC (Infantry Officer Basic Course).

We were encouraged to interview for Ranger School. As I was standing in line to be interviewed, I heard those before me aggressively pounding on the door and yelling to enter the interview room.

The soldier, 5 men in front of me, pounded on the door so hard he crashed through it. The interviewers thought that was GREAT!

As they were repairing the door, I did an about face and exited the interviewing building.

Nope, NO Ranger school for me (I thought, why break through a perfectly good door, when you could just open it) -
