Haha. Some memories about that school!. I was a Marine in Ranger class 12-92 . Anyone going there should focus on knowing that no matter how much it sucks while you’re going through it; graduation day will come as sure as the sun will come up to warm you up, you will eat again, you will sleep again, don’t give up just because you’re uncomfortable. Get that tab.

My son graduated in April with RC 5-24, his first attempt at RS; he recycled once in Mountains (for an ND), and got GO's on 4-6 looks overall. Recycling Mountains was actually good as it let him build his strength back. Currently serving with TOG. Proud Ranger Dad!

An Army Infantry SSG. I once had a 2LT platoon leader who was peered out of Ranger School... TWICE! Not sure if he was being a turd, or just because he was naturally stubborn. But having served with many who were tabbed, the takeaway here is this: Be a pal. Offer to carry more than your share, help out buddies and leadership whenever possible, and this won't happen to you.

Mountain phase, did a night time live fire ambush ( towed vehicles ) . When we started pulling back there were person sized shadows scurrying around the positions we had been firing from. Found out later it was back woods hill people grabbing spent brass. The Tennessee valley divide is literally Deliverance.

Yeah, that never happened. There are no "live fire" patrols at modern Ranger School. And the only live fire type patrols they did back in the day was in FL phase. So, yeah, you just heard a story that somebody that went to Ranger School told and decided to embellish on it.

@Eric-kv1ip 2 ай бұрын

Thank you for a most interesting and well-presented video. In the mid 70’s my boss was an infantry captain in the Royal Canadian Regiment. One day he told me about his experience on the US Army Ranger course. He said they were required to make a jump and the Americans assumed the Canadian students would all be jump qualified. He wasn’t and had never made a jump but he asked his fellow students for assistance and with their help learned what to do, and so was able to make a successful jump. Later when this leaked, he was called before the school staff where he was admonished (with a Ranger wink). What struck me most about this Captain was that he was of medium build, quiet and soft spoken, the opposite of a Rambo type warrior. A vacancy on a US Ranger course was much coveted and those selected did not want to fail. Returning to your regiment without earning the Ranger tab would be a source of shame.

Here goes. I go to the pre- ranger at the end of June. Then once that's done I go straight to Ranger. But the catch is I'm doing JRTC before pre Ranger. Two days after JRTC I start pre Ranger. I'll make it happen. The way I look at it, I'll stay in shape and get into the military planning mind set necessary for the missions at the school. My only concern is keeping my packing list up to date.

Off topic question, anyone got watch recommendations for Ranger? I was thinking about a Hamilton Field Khaki but I don't like that the sapphire glass is reflective. Easy fix with a watch cover if anyone's got suggestions. Can I take an analogue non-GPS watch with built in barometer, altimeter, compass? Definitely gonna take at least two watches with me when I go in July.

I have heard that SORs are for for real-world safety issues but it sounds like also for blue:blue behaviors on FTX even with blanks, etc. Adjusting fire onto friendly forces, failing to shift supporting fires, etc. Back in my day, it would have been Major Minus Spotreps. "Volunteer to hump the Pig / 240 - every time." Best advice I got before Ranger School. Class 4-83.

can you become a ranger regardless of your mos? i really want to become a ranger later on but my mom doesnt really liike that im joining the army so shes making me choose a "safer" mos

@trenttaylor2803 5 ай бұрын

Pick the mos that you will have the most enjoyment with. Do not pick an mos that you won’t want to do every single day as your job. This is your career after all, and you’re becoming an adult and a leader. You must choose for yourself, something that you want to wake up and do, even on the tough days. That being said, any mos can attend ranger school, but combat arms typically send the most with infantry being the largest population. Regardless, bug your leadership about going as much as possible, and prove to them that you will pass ranger school by being athletically dominant, and a leader! Good luck.

I would say really focus on cardio. When I say Cardio try doing an 8 mile run at a 8:00 to 8:15 pace 5 Mile with the goal of being as close to 7 minute to 7:15 pace 8 - 10, 400m (1/4 mile) Sprints with a target time of 1:30. Try getting a toatal amount of 20 to 25 miles a week of running just so you get used to the amount of volume and stress on the body. Stress fractures and pains is what gets alot of people and to mitigate that you just need to add volume to your workouts. Strength training is important as well.
