<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>They absolutely do. They train hard, but they play hard, too. Those were some of my favorite years in the Army.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Depends. I am sure there are Rangers past and present who did and I am also sure there are some who didn&#39;t. A lot of that depends on the individual. The high military divorce rates will show you that there are plenty of Military folks across the board who struggle to meet a balance between work and life.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>There&#39;s a training cycle. You rotate through readiness statuses where you train a few months, deploy or are on standby a dfew months, then chill a few months

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Being a stickler for words, the answer is yes. *EVERY* job has a work/life balance. Some jobs the balance is 99/1, others it is 1/99. Most fall somewhere in between.<br /><br />Your question is not do they have a balance, but rather, *what* is that balance? Even asking do they have a *good* balance is incorrect, because each person defines &quot;good&quot; differently.<br /><br />Personally, my ideal balance is about 90/10. I have no hobbies, don&#39;t like people, and am a workaholic. Very few jobs offer me my ideal. So I default to my *second-best* which is about 30/70 and I spend most of the 70 as a hermit. But I can make anything work - as can most people, if they really try.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>There are cycles, training, mission, support. But depending on the call, they can be changed in an instant. When you are the tip of the spear, life gets interesting. Rangers go get burn out, and will often transfer back into a regular type unit.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Nope. <br />Carry on.
