I am in ait and we had a recruiter come and talk to us about being in the 75th rangers. He said he needed people with our mos. (42 a) so I volunteered as got a packet. My question is what should I do/ what are they looking for? And what should I do to get selected.

Go there, whatever MOS you have is needed. you will work with people that have been specially selected to serve in the regiment. IT will be a tough road to get there with ABN School, RASP, and as an NCO Ranger School, but it is worth it!

I am one of the few intel officers in the army with a Ranger Tab.

RLTW!

Hello. I am a 17 year old senior who is shipping out to boot camp at Fort Benning for 11x August 15. My dream right now is to join the rangers, but sadly I could not get it in my contract because of a medical waiver. I am pretty in shape and got a 273 on my APT, and my recruiters are telling me that even if I did not get an option 40 contract, if I do good on pt tests and am a good soldier in boot camp, there will be guys recruiting people to airborne and RASP at boot camp, is that true?

PVT (Join to see) - When you get to your first duty station, go to the Special Operations Recruiter's Office & talk to them. They will be more than helpful in answering any & all questions you have. Focus on getting thru basic, then worry about trying to get into the 75th.

They want team players but also ones who can lead. Be mentally tough you will have lots of challenges both physically and mentally. They will push you past what you thought was your limits. Rangers lead the way
