What happens if you pass RASP, but fail jump school afterwards?

Have a friend that has told me that in the 75th you go to RASP now before Airborne school. If that is the case what happens if you make it to rasp, earn that tan beret at the end and then go to jump school and somehow fail it? Does your option 40 contract defer? Are you just rolled, or are you sent “worldwide”? I’m just curious

I cant imagine anyone going through the tough trials of RASP and then failing jump. From what I understand, there are two major types of failures. Those who can't handie the physical demands.-can't see that being an issue after RASP; and psychological - can't step off the plane. Again, I can't imagine soneone with the ability to gut check through RASP having issues jumping off the plane

Who does this???
Other than an injury I never see this being a possibility. NO worries.

Been many years since my “Bat” days in 3/75 but in those times failure to meet your part of the “contract” opened the sm to world wide reassignment in accordance with the needs of the Army . Having said that I’ve also seen senior NCO’s and or cadre “go to bat “ for those that seemed worthy of that effort . Sorry I do t have better answers . I can say that airborne school is a gut check for most but truly gravity and nerve driven ... best advice ,don’t fail. RLTW <3>
