If I reenlist under option 5 to join 75th, would still get the bonus when I pass RASP and get to the Regiment?

Or drop a PACKET for 75th then Re-enlist.

You can't reenlist to join 75th. It's simply not an authorized option. You have to request to attend RASP, reenlist Opt 1 needs of the Army, pass selection and the you'll receive orders to your BN.

You can’t re enlist to the Ranger Reg. There is no option that allows that.

To address the question about the bonus-- you reenlist to attend RASP and upon graduation of RASP and Airborne school you get the bonus. It is critical that the 75th puts you into ATRRS for airborne school prior to reenlisting. They will tell you that they don't schedule Airborne till you are successful with RASP, but you have to get them to schedule you or you don't qualify for the 75th location bonus.

Honestly, I would re-enlisted for another incentive (maybe another school you want, the degree completion program if you can swing it, or maybe another location), then, I would put in to volunteer for RASP. You will not lose anything re-enlistment-wise for “furthering your career.” But, doing it this way maximizes the incentives you could get.
