I was in 2nd Bat for a few years I often tell people the most difficult job in the military is a cook in Ranger bat. These guys work all day and still have a combat mission that they have to go to ranges for and deploy for etc. it is truly amazing how dedicated these guys are especially because they tend to run one of the best chow halls on base, Rangers Lead the Way!
94B/ 92G Food service & other low density MOS's are always left out in the whole Armed Forces, until it's time to have for meal time (Chow-time)! No beans, bullets, comm. batteries etc... no essential equipment, just HOOAH!!!
When i went to Vietnam i saw guys coming in who had completed basic and AIT then suddenly are sent to a war zone. They had no idea what they were doing, made all kinds of mistakes and a lot never made it home because they just were not trained to survive. Green berets got a lot of credit and not taking away from them their training can be up to about three years before they are deployed. But to me the rangers had the best training and did the most difficult missions. I learned to speak Vietnamese on my own and became fluent in about seven months. The team i had was all volunteers, and were to me the best of the best. They were ready to face anything we had to face. These guys in this video expressed the same sentiment about the rangers pushing for excellence that i am talking about.
also consider that these guys are not infantry. these are support jobs. the engineer may be the closest out of this group when a person is thinking of what a ranger is.
39:30 time mark; I think it prepares you for life, for dedication and commitment to all things in life. Being in BN is like having the volume cranked to 11. When you get out or go elsewhere everything is easier. See General Abrahms charter, we are meant to be an asset to those around us anywhere we go. On the other hand, the world is not battalion. Being a former Ranger is who I was, not who I am today. I think this gets lost on many people in the Army and Regiment in general... It's impossible to replace that identity but you must if you are going to find peace as a civilian. No one cares that I was in battalion as a civi. You've got to find personal value outside of that and work hard at being a good neighbor, good friend, good husband, good community contributor, good employee. For me finding my identity was crucial to moving on and integrating with society while building quality relationships that were mutually beneficial. It's hard to build relationships with those who didn't live that life so you've got to move beyond it.
In the late 70" I was at HAAF in Savannah. Our primary mission was to fly the 1st/75 Ranger Bn. It was the best assignment of my Army career. You understood very quickly you never wanted to be on the other side of them.
Funny story,I went thru airborne school right after OSUT in July 2002,after our blood wings were duly given,I applied for Ranger school and I was asked what my MOS was,I said "31B Sgt"(military police),he look at me like I was beyond crazy and said "We don't need Blue Falcons here" and threw my CAC at me...Darn!

The thing to remember about units like Ranger Regiment is they don’t have to retain dirty bags like big Army does. I did some training with Regiment in the 80s, and was amazed how many of those young soldiers where not tab, but out doing the Ranger mission. True warriors!
No unit in the Army "has" to retain any dirty bags. Most of the time those soldiers are going through the process of being chaptered out for medical, failure to adapt, or are close to ETS. The Ranger Regiment aren't the only infantry units that hold high standards or won't tolerate those that can't hang. Regular line units have the slots to move you to HQ and get put to bitch work, which happens all the time. So, this whole "Big Army" nonsense is BS for the most part. The only comparable units that you can point to are line infantry units and they simply don't have the mission like the Rangers and not all of them push as hard physically as a whole. However, many infantry units get leadership who impose high standards and they get pushed hard. It's all about the leadership and it changes every 2-3 years.
They all have combat patches-RGT doesn’t hand out CIBs or CABs for deployments that don’t go kinetic- doesn’t mean they didn’t pull 160 days w/JSOTF in Syria. It’s not their choice who shoots at them and vice versa-if they are tested under fire, they will send the hate, no doubt!,🇺🇸🤙🏼
The reality of combat patches, CIBs and CABs in the modern military is we're fighting the "easiest" war in US history. It's nice when terrorist are at a huge disadvantage when they're poorly equipped and we control the airspace. I'll give credit to special operations because GWOT is more tailored to specialized units than sending a whole tank division.
Back in the 70s I was photographer at McCord airbase. I worked with personal assigned to the 2nd of the 75th at ft. Lewis. They were outstanding Troops.
Also equally important is understanding the General Abrahms doesn't stop when you leave battalion, it carries on beyond regiment, no matter the reason for departure. (Including Removal for Standards or RFS as its known)
I'm retired now, but I'd really like to have you guys interview the Rangers on other posts who feed these low density MOSs. Fort Gordon (Eisenhower) has a Ranger path for the Signal/Cyber Corps that's fairly well established. I would think that type of program is setup across the TRADOC posts for people coming in. Before the STB came about and these programs were established no one knew how to get there.
Appreciate it. We discussed these paths with the NCOIC of the Regiment’s in-service recruitment. He goes into detail about how the pipeline works and where representatives are located. Here’s the episode: The Truth About Becoming a U.S. Army Ranger th-cam.com/video/oLoPryr74HQ/w-d-xo.html
I know Tylergerkink he’s over at fort benning right now, the last time I seen him was at religious services, he was briefing trainees on the rules before we entered the church.
how is AIT? I'm shipping on on Sept 11 for a contract with Option 4 and 68W. I plan on volunteering for RASP at Airborne since they both are at Ft Moore
@@ChickentNug Damn I forgot they renamed Benning. Anyways, AIT is fine. I would recommend PTing on your own once you have the freedom because you will get out of shape there kinda, especially if you’re goal is rasp.
These are the people who would know what life is like anyone E-4 and below either just got Tabbbed or doesnt have one meaning they have little knowledge of what goes on.
I remember soldiers try to make it to the Ranger and I told them you king of heavy to become a Ranger. I was retired at that time and I tell you I was in better shame than most of them. I don’t take anything away from them but they need to spend more time in the GYM and eat right.
I was a 91B that got picked to be in LRSC made it to Halo plt but the PSG “didn’t know what to do with me” so I became the CO’s driver who was a green beret doing his company time before he can lead an ODA got in good with him, we had a 2 week field ops where we stayed in our compound and boathouse & 3rd detachments (waterborne plt) PSG SFC SHANAMAN from C-Co3/75 was also an mma fighter and found out that I boxed and he wanted me in his Det, he literally traded 2 inf guys to HQ for me to get on the teams (3-2) it was definitely the best time of my life.. had to learn the ranger creed, got my balls smoked, and got to do field/ range ops, fries zodiac training/ PT and even deployed with them boys!! they wanted me to reenlist and change my mos and go to ranger school but I was young and “in love” honestly wish I would’ve stayed in!!
CEMA Company within RMIB is pretty shadowy. If they aren’t 17C’s with cyber mission force operator or analyst qualifications I can’t imagine they’re doing much outside of tactical “EW” actions. And if they are RASP and Ranger qualified they’re likely getting picked up by JCOG/JSOC I’d bet.
All of you guys are thinking of 11B bat boys, these guys are POGs yes, they’re still part of ranger bat but they are support 11bravos are held at a higher standard.
No, they fuckin aren't. A regt dude is a regt dude, they're all held to the same standard. These dudes just aren't necessarily shooters n door kickers but they don't relax. They get range time, PT, and have to qual and eval just like the rest of the regt does. you're saying a lot of shit from a dude not in.
@@Izak213I think what he is saying is being in a Line Company, life is just different. Expectations, training, even down to who your friends are. It’s just a different animal for the 11B than for the soft MOS’
I served in 1st Batt, back in the early 80s, Back then we had 11-Bravo's , Mortar Teams, 13- Fox, ( F/O ), Medics plus, Two USAF air control guys and a few Commo Tech's in the Battalion, And there was only 2 Battalions and the school, that is what made us Elite from the rest of the Army, Now every body and their grandmother is Spec Ops, LMAF !!!!
You need a lot of Special Operations Soldiers when you have been conducting combat operations for the last 20 years. Didn't need much in the early 80s during a peacetime Army. Just because there is more SOF now doesn't mean they are garbage. SOF is still the extreme minority of the Army. I know older folks love to shyt on the youngsters but an 80s Soldier shytting on GWOT Soldiers is ridiculous. These mofos have multiple combat tours.
God Bless all these men, they stand up and give their lives to protect our country (YOU AND ME). that takes guts and commintment,pray for all our warriors, land, sea and air.
I’m trying to enlist as 11B but currently there’s no option 40 or option 4 but it’s been a dream to be SOF but is there any chances to get a slot ? My friend just signed an 18x at OSUT and said no one got a slot in his class.
Don’t join until you get the job that you want. Tell them what you want and stick with it. Never settle for what you don’t want because you will be stuck with that job for years
Watch Episode 342. It’ll answer your question. You’ll be approached at Ft. Moore during OSUT and they can modify your contract at that time. If you meet the requirements, you’ll be given an opportunity to go to RASP. Within the video, you’ll learn that the majority of those who obtain an Option 40 never make it to regiment. Watch to learn more.
Tell your recruiter you won’t sign anything without Option 40. Your recruiter may not want to put in the work but there are always Option 40’s available. DO NOT sign unless it says you have orders to RASP after OSUT.
After doing over 350 episodes (not all released yet!), it’s difficult to remember each guest and their background. However, if you look in our content (especially the audio only format on podcast apps) I think you’ll find several shows with Rangers and a few who came from that career management field. I think the one we did with the over 40 yr old Ranger is in that field. Hope that helps.
Hear me out don’t yell me lol but you guys should do a video with a group of SFAB guys since they are a new unit and A LOT of people don’t know what they do. While giving them a lot of hate about stuff they had no roll in and messing up what they are doing
Two recent guests were sergeants majors in SFAB who did provide some insight, but we have talked about bringing them back to specifically address the past and present.
I'm 26 and am thinking of becoming a 25A (I know this MOS can't go directly into the Regiment). What is the first thing I should do? Also, what does a Signal Officer actually get to do in the Regiment?
Yes. Both 35L and 35M are eligible. If an Option 40 isn’t available, there is a Regiment Liaison at AIT who can modify your contract. Many have gone that route.
When U want to be ah "Airborne Ranger". You don't want to go legs (infantry). the best way to go is 12 Bravo combat engineer, airborne, rasp. then your running missions in 26 weeks. + u got your tunnel rat training like vietnam boys & u got your airborne training like the band of brothers boys, & u got your ranger training like the A-Team 💲💲💲🏴☠
By some of these comments it’s unfortunate that some people didn’t actually seem to watch the video and learn more about regiment. All the “fat” and “they’re pogs” comments are dead give aways
"low density MOS" a polite way of calling someone a REMF, POG, FOBBIT, ect. And yes, tou will find us everywhere, if not assigned to your unit you will find us attached to and supporting your units operations. Undertrained, under equiped, we will be there when and where you need us to bring you your ammo, fuel, food, vital equipment and treat your wounded and take them to safety. I've always been proud to have served, even prouder of my soldiers. The sons of Martha, By Rudyard Kipling The Sons of Mary seldom bother, for they have inherited that good part; But the Sons of Martha favour their Mother of the careful soul and the troubled heart. And because she lost her temper once, and because she was rude to the Lord her Guest, Her Sons must wait upon Mary’s Sons, world without end, reprieve, or rest. It is their care in all the ages to take the buffet and cushion the shock. It is their care that the gear engages; it is their care that the switches lock. It is their care that the wheels run truly; it is their care to embark and entrain, Tally, transport, and deliver duly the Sons of Mary by land and main.
can you focus on 11B and 11C instead of these types of rangers? All due respect but.. come on... and that colombian guy thinks this is his personal documentary. dude's hogging the mic
Email 75RECRUIT@SOCOM.MIL. Our understanding is that if you apply, attend and complete pre-RASP and RASP 1/2, the rest will take care of itself. Eventually you’ll need to reclassify. They’ll let you know when.
I think US RANGERS AND UK PARACHUTE REGIMENT AARE VERY ALIKE DEFINITELY SUPERIOR SOLDIERS I MET ALL THE AIRBORNE WELL 82 AND 101st 75 RANGERS ARE ALL EXCELLENT TROOPS
Listen we have a unique ability to leave someone what we want to hold one to. Well I'd one decides to wear it hello it's a call out better go see if every thing is ok
good video, but the audio when the rangers are talking has a high pitch screech in the background. very annoying but i still watched the whole thing lol
Appreciate your comment. We had an audio challenge during taping. It happens and all you can do is not stop the taping and attempt to correct it in post editing.
One and she did not have to meet the same physical standards as the guys and she is not popular with anyone. Her identity is secret because of all the shit she would get if were out there.
Yeah very weak interview. And the interviewer didn't push them to answer the questions. The problem is this looks too formal. The ranks, the uniforms etc. This just a wannabe army recruiting ad for Regiment. Should have done it in plain clothes because these dudes don't talk like this off camera.

Tell your recruiter you won’t sign anything without Option 40. Your recruiter may not want to put in the work but there are always Option 40’s available. DO NOT sign unless it says you have orders to RASP after OSUT.
@@chrislarson5416your recruiter can’t see the options, the people at MEPS do
Do you have any videos of 19K guys?
88N in the 75th!
Ranger cooks used to be the hardest working, hardest partying, most Jack Daniel drinking, less sleeping most fun dudes in Batt.
Forgive me if you have already done it, but is there a possibility having a podcast with 25 series mos's Rangers?
After doing over 350 episodes (not all released yet!), it’s difficult to remember each guest and their background. However, if you look in our content (especially the audio only format on podcast apps) I think you’ll find several shows with Rangers and a few who came from that career management field. I think the one we did with the over 40 yr old Ranger is in that field. Hope that helps.
Really gotta start to explain the acronyms as you use them.
Totally understand. We’ll try to consider that more or put it underneath post edit.
Does anybody know what happened at USF in Tampa?
Charlie 2nd 54th Infantry Regiment 3rd platoon. 1988
I was in 2nd Bat 1979-1982, and I weigh 142 pounds lean mean running machine.
What height?
Hear me out don’t yell me lol but you guys should do a video with a group of SFAB guys since they are a new unit and A LOT of people don’t know what they do. While giving them a lot of hate about stuff they had no roll in and messing up what they are doing
Two recent guests were sergeants majors in SFAB who did provide some insight, but we have talked about bringing them back to specifically address the past and present.
Yup
Sound compacted our is just what unit your from as in rct or aac we have worked with USA army yearly grate people and family
I'm 26 and am thinking of becoming a 25A (I know this MOS can't go directly into the Regiment). What is the first thing I should do? Also, what does a Signal Officer actually get to do in the Regiment?
Switch MOS’s
@@Jodarijacob is it a bad MOS?
I believe 25A is part of Regiment. You can contact 75RECRUIT@SOCOM.MIL to enquire.
See if a 75th recruiter comes by during BOLC.
Are these guys STB, OR RGT.
these are different for those that dont know.
Can a 35l counter intel or human intel get a option 40
Yes. Both 35L and 35M are eligible. If an Option 40 isn’t available, there is a Regiment Liaison at AIT who can modify your contract. Many have gone that route.
When U want to be ah "Airborne Ranger". You don't want to go legs (infantry).
the best way to go is 12 Bravo combat engineer, airborne, rasp.
then your running missions in 26 weeks. + u got your tunnel rat training like vietnam boys & u got your airborne training like the band of brothers boys, & u got your ranger training like the A-Team

What, no cooks? I was in 3/75 as a 92G from 2008 to 2012.
We didn’t pick the crew, but we follow the 92G Regiment page on Instagram. 😀
Oh I forgot to say just selling off shore
Ranger (4-86) 3/75 11B
They sure are eatin' good at the 75th..... Must not give much for uniform allowance either - those blouses are screaaaaaaaaaamin!
Question is how did the 91B go to ranger school?
OP 40
Does 12b actually see combat and do things like breaching?
You could probably expect that
It’s why they are called “combat” engineer.
12Bs for sure see combat, there’s also route clearance
Dont be a dick and go into 42A
It’s crazy how these guys have both the Ranger Tab and Scroll but they’re not infantry. They have regular “big army” jobs.
As they say RLTW
By some of these comments it’s unfortunate that some people didn’t actually seem to watch the video and learn more about regiment. All the “fat” and “they’re pogs” comments are dead give aways
🤣
No low density Comm/cyber Mos?
3:08. YES.
Grunts have changed
Except they're not grunts.

I noticed that some of the guys' uniforms have no breast pockets! Is this a new uniform design, or customized?
Summer OCP doesn’t have pockets.
@@Mentors4mil Since when? There was only one OCP style when I was in.
I think it was around 2019 the Improved Hot Weather Combat Uniform (IHWCU) OCP was released.
@@Mentors4mil Yeah, I'd just gotten out that year prior, so that makes sense.
How difficult is it for someone coming in as a 70 series to get to the Ranger Regiment?
Submit a request to join to 75recruit@socom.mil.
"low density MOS" a polite way of calling someone a REMF, POG, FOBBIT, ect.
And yes, tou will find us everywhere, if not assigned to your unit you will find us attached to and supporting your units operations.
Undertrained, under equiped, we will be there when and where you need us to bring you your ammo, fuel, food, vital equipment and treat your wounded and take them to safety.
I've always been proud to have served, even prouder of my soldiers.
The sons of Martha,
By Rudyard Kipling
The Sons of Mary seldom bother, for they have inherited that good part;
But the Sons of Martha favour their Mother of the careful soul and the troubled heart.
And because she lost her temper once, and because she was rude to the Lord her Guest,
Her Sons must wait upon Mary’s Sons, world without end, reprieve, or rest.
It is their care in all the ages to take the buffet and cushion the shock.
It is their care that the gear engages; it is their care that the switches lock.
It is their care that the wheels run truly; it is their care to embark and entrain,
Tally, transport, and deliver duly the Sons of Mary by land and main.
Ok, 6 dudes from the Regiment and they are all POGs no Infantry?
Yes. This was an episode specifically about enabler roles. We’ve done many on infantry in SOF.
Bring on SFC truesdale
“The elite unit you’ve never heard of” ?????? Who hasn’t heard of the Rangers
can you focus on 11B and 11C instead of these types of rangers? All due respect but.. come on... and that colombian guy thinks this is his personal documentary. dude's hogging the mic
Does ranger regiment still deny 19Ds to go too RASP?
Email 75RECRUIT@SOCOM.MIL. Our understanding is that if you apply, attend and complete pre-RASP and RASP 1/2, the rest will take care of itself. Eventually you’ll need to reclassify. They’ll let you know when.
I think US RANGERS AND UK PARACHUTE REGIMENT AARE VERY ALIKE DEFINITELY SUPERIOR SOLDIERS I MET ALL THE AIRBORNE WELL 82 AND 101st 75 RANGERS ARE ALL EXCELLENT TROOPS
Listen we have a unique ability to leave someone what we want to hold one to. Well I'd one decides to wear it hello it's a call out better go see if every thing is ok
Do these guys go through RASP 1?
E-1 to E-5 rasp 1
E-6 and up rasp2
Do support personnel like these guys go through rasp?
@@matthewspaeth4669EVERYONE does. You need to pass Ranger school to have a command billet.
@@matthewspaeth4669 yes. Everyone goes through RASP. And if you become a SSG in Regiment, you go back to RASP to do RASP-2.
@@Izak213 How many women made it through rasp 1?
can a 91B get an option 40 contract?
Yes
kia sysytem brief
good video, but the audio when the rangers are talking has a high pitch screech in the background. very annoying but i still watched the whole thing lol
Appreciate your comment. We had an audio challenge during taping. It happens and all you can do is not stop the taping and attempt to correct it in post editing.
Where's the 11b?
“Low density” means non combat arms MOS’s.
How many females have made it through RASP 1?
One and she did not have to meet the same physical standards as the guys and she is not popular with anyone. Her identity is secret because of all the shit she would get if were out there.
Are any of these men riflemen?
Low density MOS?
The definition is an MOS within an organization or unit that is required but applies to a small amount of Soldiers.

What happened to the high and tight?
What happened to the ranger high and tight haircuts . The military has changed drastically over the last 20 years
High and tights look like unprofessional shit. Just like the flattop horseshoe haircut.
Bro...we quit doing those in like 2003. When it comes to that you could actually say the Regiment changed a lot 20 years ago.
Look back at some troop photos from the 70's and early 80's. Almost no Ranger cuts or High and Tights.
No shit 20 years is a long time for change to happen
Ranger Regiment had high and tights until GWOT.

They didn’t really answer any of the questions good
Yeah very weak interview. And the interviewer didn't push them to answer the questions. The problem is this looks too formal. The ranks, the uniforms etc. This just a wannabe army recruiting ad for Regiment. Should have done it in plain clothes because these dudes don't talk like this off camera.
Divorced all of them
😂😂😂😂nah fuck that
