My opinion is Battalion raises you from a private and ingrains the mental and physical toughness needed to move to the Q course or the Unit if you can get selected. Your going to have a be well rounded, surrounded by professionals and now a days your getting the missions very similar to tier 1 stuff. Ranger units have diff levels within , and you can’t go wrong
I've wanted to be a SEAL since I was 10. I'm 16 now and have been training for around half a year and plan to keep training until and through I am old enough to apply. I moved to Bend Oregon around a year ago. I heard the name and was surprised but then heard the Bend Oregon and was even more surprised.
Hey man, I’m from bend Oregon to! I’m 18, heading up to meps next week. Going for ranger as well. I’ve been going on hikes and working out, if you want to train together sometime hmu.
Aaron Burkhardt right on man, sounds like you got a good thing going. For me, getting mentally prepared is just as important as physical. You should listen to David Goggins and his audio book, as well as Jocko willinks. They’re both ex navy seals and complete bad asses.
Aaron Burkhardt I’m 16 too, and I’m training for the Rangers. Cross country is the perfect base builder for endurance, and I highly recommend those weightlifting classes. I’ve been focusing on XC and heavy compound lifts for a couple years, and it’s working perfectly. Keep doing what you’re doing. The other thing that can help is to start studying for the asvab, the higher it the more likely you’ll get what you want.
How's everything going for you guys? I just started my Ranger journey and I DEFINITELY have to get my running better. I'm fairly strong and can do the other exercises pretty well, but I've never been much of a runner so I'm gonna have to train hard on that part.
For those asking about ASVAB scores and what the the requirements are- the requirement is a GT score of 110 or higher. The GT is a breakdown of the ASVAB and acts as a poor mans IQ test. A GT score is not synonymous with an ASVAB total score. A GT score of 110 qualifies you for absolutely all MOS's.
I wanted to be a SeAL after Charlie sheen played one then I started to jump In the pool every morning to see how long I could tread & I realized fast I hate cold water, so an army recruiter showed me a story about rangers so, the rest is history...
These post 9-11 guys are no different than us guys in the early 80’s when I was in 1st Bn. I love to hear their stories, I’m proud to be C Co. 1st Bn. back in the day, you know, when it was hard. Sua Sponte
Was in 3rd for 6 did my last two with pathfinder unit at 101st. We ran the division pre ranger course and I can tell you they wanted as many tabs as we could get . Even if your not a battalion ranger, the leadership experience and training just bringing the tab back to your unit is priceless . If you wanted to go to Battalion you needed 4 years retention , by assigned to a scout unit , exceed all standards for battalion on paper, and then get your RASP slot . We would help guys out on weekends or whenever at the pathfinder unit to get them prepared . At least half of us were prior battalion guys

As for me, I was in the wrong place at the wrong time. I was at Airborne school and RIP came in and drafted a bunch of us. No choice really and it was away we go. I was upset at the time, but it tuned out to be one of the best things that happened to me
@@kevincorrigan1754 Back in the day, the Rangers, 82nd, 101st, SF could do pretty much anything they wanted. If you got caught up in it, well embrace the SUCK
@@kevincorrigan1754 Hey on top of that, you have to pass RIP to go to Battalion. A few guys were not going to try real hard. The take you out back and beat the shit out of you, while everyone else is listening, killed that plan for a lot of guys. lol
Shoot I'm from bend too! Mt. Bachelor is a sweet mountain...Ive been out of the air force for 2 years...now want to mount the horse and join the scroll. Thanks for the oregonian shout-out brother, and as always "tHAnk YoU FoR YoURE sErvice" -youre friendly neighborhood chairman.
god damn i really want to join the rangers, sad i am living in cyprus and first i gotta find a way to states because least i have to live in states over 6 months
Is 2/75 still known as 2nd Aryan on Ft. Lewis? My first night there I had to listen to soldier talk about how much he hated having an N-word as BN CSM. Then he talked about holocaust denial. Then a team leader (N.L.) named his fire team 'Aryan Team'. I saw someone reading 'The Turner Diaries'. Then going to see 'friends' in Idaho (Hayden Lakes/Aryan Nations). One solider (M.S.) was going to have 'My Honor is My Loyalty' (SS motto) tattooed on him. Or is it less neo-Nazi these days?
Nobody counting kills. Anyone spitting out nonsense like that is full of it. You do your job and if you pulling triggers in battalion, you can’t keep count , and really should we even bother to keep count . Not something to talk about
could not join into the rangers in 1978, buddy and i enlested into infantry, chose ft lewis, spent 2mos in a leg unit. we met with the cmsg of the 2/75th , we were accepted, went through rip on north ft , we both ranger grads, both inst in dahlonega, rltw
people that are hyperactive or insomniacs love the army.. very little sleep , and theres always something to do. Even in regular infantry units , very little sleep
There's a lot of hate towards Rangers (batt boys) by another branch and I honestly don't know why? Just suck it up and drive on but that branches fan boism goes hard.
Rangers are decent at what they do but the true jack of all trades is Seals. Seals can do everything Rangers can but add in the water component and there's no comparison. I have a Ranger friend who is retired now and he told me that behind closed doors most Rangers will tell u they wished they were Seals. I can understand why. Seal training is far more complex and longer than Ranger or Green Beret. Delta and Seals are about the same in aptitude

@Aaron B Nice Name
I got a GT of 107 so i wasn't quite there yet lol
Apollo Gamer it’s a gt score of 105 or better .
i just dont get it
@@woodskier option 40 requires a gt of 105, im still confused on how the asvab correlates to the gt score or how its calculated
