<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I'm a future 35S(I ship in 3 months) who would like to go to the 75th Ranger Regiment. I should also say, i do not have an airborne contract. Is it difficult to be selected for training? I've heard of the new RMIB which is for Military intelligence including signals in the 75th. Basically i just want to avoid a desk job and actually do something in the field with my training but at the same time have a job that will help me get a very good civilian job if that makes sense. Also for any current 35S people, whats your job like? Thanks!Wed, 13 Mar 2019 12:14:09 -0400How can a 35S be more field oriented/Active?

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>If you want to stay tactical your entire career oh, you will not progress very far. That's fine if you don't plan on retiring, or if you plan on retiring as a staff sergeant. Or, if you do not plan on using you're MOS after the military. You're MOS as a strategic and tactical side and to be a valuable member of your MOS, you will need to know both sides.<br />You can contact the ranger recruiter at 75 recruit at [login to see] your recruiter who recruited you into the army will not be able to help you with this.<br />If you find that you don't want to sit behind a desk, you can always switch to Infantry after you earn your Ranger tabSFC Private RallyPoint MemberWed, 13 Mar 2019 12:29:21 -04002019-03-13T12:29:21-04:00Response by CPL Private RallyPoint Member made Mar 13 at 2019 2:47 PM

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>That's a long way away. Pass selection first then worry about it.CPL Private RallyPoint MemberWed, 13 Mar 2019 14:47:04 -04002019-03-13T14:47:04-04:00Response by CW2 Private RallyPoint Member made Mar 13 at 2019 3:29 PM

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>There's more than just Rangers out there. Ask your branch manager to be assigned to an SF group, reach out to JSOC, USAPAB, and Great Skills. Those will keep you tactical/operational while giving very advanced training and looking amazing on your record.CW2 Private RallyPoint MemberWed, 13 Mar 2019 15:29:48 -04002019-03-13T15:29:48-04:00Response by SSG Private RallyPoint Member made Mar 15 at 2019 12:07 PM

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I’m a 35S. Your best chance for tactical collection experience is to go airborne and get assigned to an SF Group. You will most likely have to re-enlist for airborne when your window opens up. Your first assignment will be a strategic assignment. This is traditionally a strategic career field. Group assignments are limited. So if you have it as an option when you re-enlist, jump on it. That’s what I did.SSG Private RallyPoint MemberFri, 15 Mar 2019 12:07:41 -04002019-03-15T12:07:41-04:00Response by SGT Martin Mundo made Apr 11 at 2019 12:54 AM

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I volunteered to go airborne while in a.i.t., I went to the 82d Abn Div. When I was at Division the M.I. unit was a battalion-sized element (Companies A, B, C, D, and E), 313th MI BN (the current structure has changed). I deployed with an infantry brigade to Afghanistan, while there I reenlisted to Bad Aibling Station (Germany), which was not tactical. Overall I enjoyed the camaraderie of the tactical unit, the strategic site was nice, I had a lot of freedom. Having experience in both types of units make a more well rounded soldier. I have never heard of anyone in intel switch to infantry or SF, I was on active duty for 5 years. SF support is the closest anyone I knew at Bragg went. Most of my a.i.t. friends went to Ft. Meade. My advice is to make the best out of every assignment.SGT Martin MundoThu, 11 Apr 2019 00:54:55 -04002019-04-11T00:54:55-04:002019-03-13T12:14:09-04:00
