Just going off of seeing where my Airborne active friends end up.<br /><br />If Reserve or Guard ask your Recruiter since they will have you sitting on a unit&#39;s open slot already.

If it does not specify a unit, then it&#39;s needs of the Army, you could end up anywhere, even with your Airborne training. 300 to 500 Soldiers graduate Airborne every week, not all are from or going to an Airborne unit.<br />But you can volunteer for RASP at Basic or Airborne School.<br />If this is a Guard or Reserve contract, your para/line in a unit is already determined.

Infantry is the MOS. As others have said, if your contracts states that you&#39;re going to an Airborne unit then you&#39;re going. If not, then maybe not. I&#39;d suspect you&#39;d have a good chance of going to one though. But always remember the phrase &quot;Needs of the Army&quot;. That trumps pretty much everything.

Airborne who are initial entry will sometimes end up in non airborne units.<br />Your best bet is to volunteer for RASP after Airborne and become a man among men -<br /> A Goddam Airborne Ranger! (you better ask somebody). SFC Private RallyPoint Member Sat, 29 Sep 2018 10:57:06 -0400 2018-09-29T10:57:06-04:00 2018-09-22T11:32:47-04:00
