It's just a training school and you can go to battalion without it. SGT Jeremiah B.

Ranger School is a training course, similar to Airborne School. The majority of graduates do not go to a Ranger unit. COL Jean (John) F. B.

First off, there are no Ranger units in the National Guard. There are Long Range Surveillance units in the National Guard that are a specialized scout unit that requires all of their NCOs to be Ranger qualified. That is an option in the Guard. The TX Guard has them but the LA Guard doesn't. To go to the 75th RGR you would have to transition over to Regular Army. Prior Service Soldiers are not allowed to go straight to the 75th RGR as their first duty assignment. I am sure there are special cases where it can happen but I have really never see it. <br /><br />If you want to go to the Rangers you would need Ranger school. It would help you get there. But I am very wary of guys that want to go to the Rangers. It is a tough difficult life there. It is something that shouldn't be taken lightly.

There are two courses. RASP 1, which is for E-1 thru E-5, and RASP 2, E-6 and up. Being Ranger qualified won't make a difference inside RASP, but it will make things easier if and when you get to a BN.
