I served 27 years and the one thing that I will always remember is that you can't judge anyone by their looks. I remember beginning training courses looking around at some bad-ass looking guys and within hours they were on the bus headed home. For anyone heading into this type of training, don't start sizing yourself up to anyone. If you're in somewhat decent shape and not weak minded, you might make it.

[@energeez]

absolutely.

"Decent shape and not weak minded, you might have a chance." That is profound

My brother at the time of this airing on TV was on a plane heading to Afghanistan on his first deployment in regiment. Was just enjoying a beer with him the other night too. Love my brother!! Thanks for reviewing this documentary!

[@sammysam2615]

My determination was to be a Ranger. Ever since I was 12 or 13 and saw a documentary and I was hooked. Then I got kicked in the balls at MEPS when it was discovered that I have Insulinoma (benign tumor on the pancreas) and the tumor(s) can be removed safely in most cases, but the procedure at the time was automatic DQ from enlistment. I was crushed and clearly went home and cried in my pillow like a bitch. But I eventually accepted it and moved on. That was late july or early August of 2000. Love the videos

[@marksmusicplace3627]

the real challenge with RASP selection is most of the candidates are coming from basic training and AIT so they haven't developed real mission tactical training. More experienced soldiers have a little easier time getting into the ranger battalion because they developed experience in overwatch, bounding over, patrolling, linear ambushes, weapon awareness, OPLP. Radio procedures, light and noise discipline, identifying TRP ( Target Reference Points.) MOUT training and clearing rooms, Stack team procedures, and other infantry training as well as leadership as well as OP orders.

[@paulkonar7842]

Thank you very much for the 2-part series on RASP. My brother-in-law was a Ranger, and now I have a good idea of what it took for him to become a Ranger.

Went through R.I.P. in late 1978. I couldn't help but notice that a few things have changed. Lol. Didn't get a chance at RANGER school till Jan 1980. These video's almost always seem to miss a lot of the finer points of the coarse's. I think, for me, the toughest part, in both course's, was learning to maintain focus and discipline when the world seemed to be against us at every turn. Like one of the first clips when the soldier said, "you gotta learn to love the suck". He may not have realized just how close he was to the truth.

jiujitsu5000 Yeah I kinda figured there would be no way in hell the Rangers would just allow some brand new guy to come in and just because they have a college degree that they are allowed to come in and start telling people what to do. I just read the book “A night in the Pech Valley” by former Ranger Grant McGarry. In this book he very clearly explains that Rangers must earn the respect and trust of his fellow teammates through proving themselves in difficult situations. Everything is peer based which is the way it should be. I loved how he described the hierarchy within the Ranger squads. Privates and non tabbed Rangers must sit on the floor when riding on the helicopters and only the most senior guys get to have the prime seating position with their legs dangling off the side of the chopper. I just think it’s so bad ass, the Rangers are literally modern day Spartans. Anyways I must thank you again for taking the time to write out thoughtful and helpful responses to us young men aspiring to work among the best of the best.

The operators are part of the Ranger regiment'special troops battalion. Most are from the 75th ranger regiment but candidates outside of the regiment are accepted but must have successfully completed the Army's Ranger Training Course and the five-week Reconnaissance Surveilance Leaders Course conducted by the 4th Ranger Training Battalion (Which is also required of candidates from the Ranger Regiment). The selection course for RRC is 3 wks and conducted twice a year.. If selected the candidate will then enter the 35 week operator training course.. The training course includes free-fall training, computers, advanced communications, digital photography, photo editing, reconnaissance reporting formats, fieldcraft and stalks, infiltration and exfiltration methods, close-air support, advanced driving techniques, demolitions, tactical man-tracking and advanced medical techniques

In infantry school we had to carry over our shoulder back and forth full gear and I had the same scenario but in a rock pit rather than dirt and grass. Harder to keep your balance and keep pace.

This was such an easy class. 2 of old teamleaders were in this class. They said the other platoons would just be getting smoked the whole time haha. But yeah, less than 30 failed our class graduated 69 and we started off with over 150

[@gamer_archeologist6726]

I'm also sure our cadre dropped 2 people slowest passing rucker and the person who passed but shot the worst at the range, just to have 69 cause we were at 71 till 2 days before graduation

You indicate you are exMil from a NATO member nation while choosing to have a Nazi German soldier as your icon? You would be in trouble if you belonged to my nations military and was actively serving. Yes, even assuming your nick "Terry Foss" is just a pseudonym we would find out who you are.

[@terryfoss4845]

@@Lobos222 Good God almighty!! I'm not active any more. The uniform is from a historical impression. Thank God we have free speech in my country and I know many who are active who do historical impressions (Axis & Allies). I also do both because I had relatives who served in the German Armed Forces and those who served in the allied forces. Not all Germans were members of the Nazi Party. They were duped by a deranged lunatic but in their eyes they were serving their country. So before you open your pie hole, be careful what you say, because what goes in might not be pie!

[@wilsonblauheuer6544]

I think a lot of these RASP candidates are fresh from basic and have not even been in a regular unit yet. So, to expect them to be good at fire and maneuver as a team is unrealistic. No one comes out of basic training as a seasoned soldier. They all need months of experience under supervision of NCO's and comrades who they can trust and can develop into skilled soldiers.

[@Phantom0fTheRouter]

True. They are only a few weeks past being confused on patrol in OSUT about what type of action to take because of who knows what type of flare went off that they didn't see wandering through the woods at night with everyone in their platoon taking different actions and passing different communication because no one knew jack, except Carl who was the one that actually hit a trip wire, and he just dropped where he was on the trail on top of his weapon.

Excellent presentation and commentary.

[@lanceavats8881]

I heard that this class had an abnormally high graduation rate, probably because of the camera crew documenting everything. From what I heard there are some things they do in RASP to the candidates that would not look too good on camera. Or maybe less people wanted to quit because they were being filmed. Maybe it’s all rumor.

[@Phantom0fTheRouter]

They used up all their stress cards too.

[@keatoncain6481]

way more dudes quit idk why this class had such a high graduation rate. its way more close to 50% or more dropping out

[@BEBOP3148822]

Obviously they're not showing all of it and I imagine this training is tuff and good, but being a marine I feel like I have done all the same training which confuses me to why they are considered special operations. This is a legitimate question I have because I don't have all the knowledge, but when I think of special operations, I think of small unit movement with a far longer pipeline of training. I respect every single one of you and I would love to learn even more. Thank you, semper fidelis

[@user-hx7yi6wx5k]

Shut the fuck up lol. No marine goes through this kind of selection before their first unit unless it’s recon.

[@azazel21379]

That's crazy that u can go 2 RASP withoit ever going thtew Ranger school. If u past RASP u just get the scroll, but i think u should havr 2 earn ur Tab at Ranger school. Now the CCTs are thr ome that seize the Air field. Plus CCTs,PJs,SR,TAC P in the 24th sts, are the ones that attached 2 Tier 1 teams, like ST6,DF, 75th Ranger Reg. I was in Airborne school with 2 CCTs,and 1 PJ. But when the CCT told me there pipeline, I really wanted in the AF, but im mpre of a hands on person, i suvk at written tests.

@@kandid706 - Marines generally don't get slots for Ranger School unless they are Recon or Marsoc, and even then slots are rare and they train up hard to go. All those specially selected, experienced, Marines end up with a ~45% pass rate, while green Soldiers from every job from cook to water treatment specialist end up with a ~55% pass rate.
