    This story lacks the minimum of thumbs up I require, but the nice set-up amount of chapters (albeit short on word count, total for a nice piece) HiE setup (my favourite, sorry)... Conclussion, I download it to my kindle.

    just saying but America isn't a democratic society, bro. We are a democratic republic, that runs on capitalism. ever since 2010 the supreme court ruled that corporations have "free speech" meaning they can donate as much money as they want to political campaigns. In a very simplistic version of voting, you get the choice of voting for either A or B, whom are both owned by C. look up (Citizens United V. Federal Election Commission)

    Moore's breathing steadied as he took his knife and plunged it into the beast's heart.

    -

    Dramatic, true, but how did he know where its heart was? He's never seen a Manticor before, after all.


    Moore took his knife and just stood there for a moment. Taking in the scene that lie before him. He looked at the knife in his hand, still freshly coated in the demon's blood. He had just killed an unknown creature, never discovered by anyone on Earth. Where was he? What kind of messed up country was he trapped in.(?)

    -

    That should have ended with a question mark, not a period.

    "My name is John Moore, I am US Army Ranger, can anyone hear me?" He asked with desperation. Silence was his the only reply. Outraged, he shouted into the speaker. "Hey! Don't just ignore me! Someone had better reply!" Nothing. Sighing, he placed the radio back onto his side and put his helmet back on. He was alone, whether he like(d) it or not.

    -

    Ya missed a 'd'.

    Swallowing, he slowly walks(ed. Lose the 's') closer to the horses and kneels(ed, again, lose the 's') down. One backs(ed, lose the 's') behind the other, who raises(d, 's' again)  a hoof and backs(ed) her head away. He rubbed the back of his head and tried to explain himself. "Look... my job is protecting people... and... I'm not going to hurt you." He said(,) still staring at the ground.

    -

    You're switched tenses in this paragraph, but the comma at the end could be ignored if you placed the word 'while' in its place (with the spacing needed, of course :twilightsmile: )

    If you ever go back later and edit it or get someone else to edit it for you I'll read the rest of it. Overall your story(line) is at interesting, but you've got a lot of work on it to do. Your spelling as far as correct lettering is fine, though.

    HOWEVER, I do enjoy this story. :pinkiehappy: I know this was a repost version of the one from fanfiction.net, but I just wish I was the author's editor. I could have contributed many corrections there (switch from 'clip' to 'magazine', correct Army customs and courtesies, etc.)

    I'm active Army MP. Also, I actually categorized each Ranger's specialties, thinking what they use to be  and what unit they were in (and unit patch on their right shoulder) before they became Rangers. Call me nerdy but that's what I did.

    Moore-Air assault (101st Airborne Division). 101's motto "Rendezvous With Destiny." I was thinking of the flashback he had while Johnson was trying to push on.

    Connors-Long Range Recon (mostly thinking cavalry scout.) 1st Cavalry Division.

    Adams-Combat engineer *cough* Essayons!! (I say 1st Armored Division)

    Barns-Squad automatic weapon gunner. (2nd Infantry Division)

    Hans-infantryman. (4th Infantry Division)

    Daniels-light infantry. (25th Infantry Division)

    >>1482426 I talked to an active CF sergeant once who said that his platoon deployed with double the standard ammo after they were in a particularly bad fire fight which landed half his platoon with the sacrifice medal. You're stil right though... I think that ammo would have been kept in the humvees or something, not on the actual soldier.

    NotABrony is correct, but another thing. Soldiers do have their hair cut short to see better, but there's another reason as well. When/if a soldier gets into close quarters combat, if their hair is long, and they nothing on their head, their opponents can grab their hair, pull it, basically take control of the fight.

    And I know I'm probably late saying this, but I notice you switch from present to past tense multiple times as you write. Also, I notice small grammatical errors but I don't see them as something to pick about. Other than these few things, and NotABrony, I love this story.

    I'm probably too late in saying all this, but hay, I still can.:rainbowlaugh:
