I'd start with him first then go farther a field.Response by SGT David A.

But your chances are higher than not.Response by 1SG Private RallyPoint Member made Apr 19 at 2018 7:32 AM2018-04-19T07:32:32-04:002018-04-19T07:32:32-04:00PV2 Private RallyPoint Member3557866<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>The first day of in-processing at Ft. Gordon AIT, our Ranger liaison came and talked to everyone who was eligible and offered us a chance to volunteer for Airborne and Rangers. He also gave us a few weeks to make up our minds and still apply. I can't speak for other AITs, but I know that we were given every opportunity to volunteer.<br /><br />As for AIT, again I can't speak for everyone, but my experience so far at Ft. Gordon has been great. As long as you're squared away and motivated, you can enjoy your time and learn a lot. The only soldiers I've heard of who hate AIT are the ones who want to hate AIT.Response by PV2 Private RallyPoint Member made Apr 19 at 2018 8:27 AM2018-04-19T08:27:19-04:002018-04-19T08:27:19-04:00SPC Private RallyPoint Member3559178<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>You can have your recruiter put it into your contract. You would go to basic, ait, then airborne, and then duty station. If you fail airborne then you become needs of the Army that means wherever you were promised is probably going to change.<br /><br />AIT as a 91B is pretty easy, you do PT, you go to chow, you go to school, you go to chow, you go back to school, you go back to chow, you do whatever the task of the night is or you have free time and then you repeat. Weekends off eventually.<br /><br />School house itself is general mechnical theory courses, break down component of engines, brakes, transmission, trouble shoot, hydraulic systems, etc.Response by SPC Private RallyPoint Member made Apr 19 at 2018 4:37 PM2018-04-19T16:37:23-04:002018-04-19T16:37:23-04:00PV2 Private RallyPoint Member3564492<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>If you request it at AIT your platoon sgt may be offering it to people with PT score 270+Response by PV2 Private RallyPoint Member made Apr 21 at 2018 2:23 PM2018-04-21T14:23:23-04:002018-04-21T14:23:23-04:00SPC Private RallyPoint Member3568240<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>It is not difficult to pick up an airborne contract in AITResponse by SPC Private RallyPoint Member made Apr 22 at 2018 9:52 PM2018-04-22T21:52:20-04:002018-04-22T21:52:20-04:00SGT Private RallyPoint Member3579131<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>None I went to fort Lee and saw none when I was in 91b training, but who knows my platoon sgt was a 91b airborne ranger so I guess the possibility Is thereResponse by SGT Private RallyPoint Member made Apr 26 at 2018 2:18 PM2018-04-26T14:18:24-04:002018-04-26T14:18:24-04:00SPC Private RallyPoint Member3586779<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I had a few friends that were able to make this happenResponse by SPC Private RallyPoint Member made Apr 29 at 2018 3:28 PM2018-04-29T15:28:14-04:002018-04-29T15:28:14-04:00SGT Private RallyPoint Member3599673<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>There will be a Ranger Recruiter that should come talk to your company/class during AIT, this is where I picked up my contract. As long as you meet all the pre reqs (pt score and gt score) you should fill out the packet and go to airborne then to rasp. This is probably the safest bet on how to avoid going to Bragg straight from jump school. The regiment is in need of skill mos too so as a 91b all you gotta do is not quit and u should be solid.Response by SGT Private RallyPoint Member made May 4 at 2018 10:03 AM2018-05-04T10:03:50-04:002018-05-04T10:03:50-04:00PFC Private RallyPoint Member3870929<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I’m at fort bragg now.

If you can get the option for airborne you have a high chance of coming to Bragg. I came to Bragg in 09 and got out in 12 and came back in 16 and they sent me back to Bragg. Lol. Good luck. Be careful what you wish for.Response by SGT Private RallyPoint Member made Aug 19 at 2018 11:03 PM2018-08-19T23:03:22-04:002018-08-19T23:03:22-04:00Christopher Simons4297194<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I've currently have been sworn in and my MOS is 91Bravo (wheel vehicle mechanic) with option 40 (Airborne school).
