That's the thin I wat to be kicking in doors and jumping out of the sky and shooting machine guns but I want to translate that out to the civilain world lol

Feel like the good things for a job outside the military are non door kicking stuff like intel and IT stuff.

You want to go airborne? Join the 75th Ranger regiment. You don't have to go to ranger school to join the unit, but make sure you can get it in writing by your recruiter to join the 75th.

You would be correct...

That is good advice. Join as a 25U (communications) with a Ranger contract. This will get you on the ground with the dudes and you still get to learn a skill. Rangers is a good place to start your career. A lot of people don't stay for too many years but if you do a good job, it will lead to all kinds of fun.

Wouldn't I need to go to ranger school? Not against it but just curious. My brother In law was a comm guy in ranger 3rd bat.

[xmikex]

Think I have found a way to have both of what I want. Taking some of your advice being tech job in 75 ranger bat.

Can get tactical and learn a skill.

[American Samurai]

Good luck getting in the 75th. Keep us updated.

No. It isn't a requirement to get in the unit; I wasn't an Army guy but from the guys that I've heard the difference is that Ranger school is a school, but once you are in the 75th, being a Ranger is a way of life. Also it is harder to stay in the unit than it is to get in since people get rejected for failing to meet standards in the unit.

Join the Air Force if you never want to be promoted lol. If you want to be kicking in doors DON'T join the Air Force. They really don't do much stuff like that. Chairforce personnel will try to tell you otherwise and all their videos show the 0.01% of Air Force that does anything tactical.

PSYOPS is a type of operation, not an MOS. If you want some cool tactical Intel, go 3912/3913 NEC Intelligence Specialist in the Navy or 35M Army, or Marine Corps Intel

Sure we do.

It's just that when we kick it's usually from very high above the door we are kicking in.

[epwegmann]

I like the flexibility. Being an intel professional makes it different than most ratings...

and I still get like a $60k re-up bonus

Jerk.

3913 was reduced to $55,000 if that makes you feel better

I'm praying our $43k SRB holds until I can reenlist.

And you know all this about the Air Force because you are such a tactical individual sitting at your desk...And you know what of Air Force promotions?

he's pretty much right. there is very little you can do besides study to influence your promotion rate and if you're a bad test taker your screwed. I've been promoted quite fast but not all are so lucky...

Ok, point taken. Still, I've seen so-so test takers make rank. I made E-8 in under 19 years, and it wasn't because I had off the hook test scores. I've seen people move up the ladder via BTZ too.
