This September, the Regular BN proudly conducted over 60 funerals and one plane-side honors in West Texas and New Mexico. It is our privilege to honor the service and sacrifice of our veterans, retirees, and fellow Soldiers. We stand united in gratitude for those who served before us and those who serve beside us.

⚔️Regular Pre-Rangers!⚔️

✅ Over the course of two weeks, the Regulars conducted a pre-ranger course. Led and organized by Ranger Qualified Regulars, 29 soldiers from across Fort Bliss participated in this grueling certification course. 5 of those participants completed and passed all course requirements.

💪 The course, designed to verify soldier’ readiness for the physical and mental demands of RAP week and Ranger School pushed soldiers to their limit. With the all-new RPA, Land Navigation, Patrol Base Ops, the Combat Water Survival Assessment, Tactics Classes, Weapons Familiarization, and much more, this course was jam-packed with valuable training.

🎓 Congratulations to the successful graduates, who have proven they are ready to take on the rigorous demands of Ranger School! And, another congratulations to all the participants who had the intestinal fortitude to show up and keep putting their best foot forward despite event failures.

Good luck to everyone in their continued pursuit of the coveted Ranger Tab!

⚔️Regular Legacy

Last Wednesday, the Regulars returned from a well deserved block leave period, and started our day with a remembrance of SPC Grace Wagoner. SPC Wagoner was a 25H Network Communications Systems Specialist in our S6 shop. She is remembered for her free spirit and great friendships. SPC Wagoner passed away on July 16th, 2024 in a vehicle accident.

Following a short run, where Regulars sang our cadences with pride, our Chaplain led us in a powerful moment of reflection and remembrance.

Chaplain Anderson reminded us of the fragility of our lives, and how important each of us is to our loved ones, our unit, and the world at large.

He also shared with us a message from a recent conversation he had with SPC Wagoner’s father. Mr. Wagoner asked Chaplain Anderson to remind our formation to make sound, well thought out decisions, because ultimately our decisions shape the outcomes of our lives.

Thank you, Chaplain Anderson and Mr. Wagoner for the powerful words. Regulars will always remember SPC Grace Wagoner.
