If they can pass the tests without lowering the limits, I have no issue with this.

Yeah it is. I was in denial earlier. I could see them earning the "tab" then a long article comes out. Then they will earn the scroll. Then there will still be a 35 yr csm telling them to get off the grass

Ranger school


The April class will be the first "test" class with females in it.

I know some of the females going, and I don't see them making it past the first week.

Disagree,

Its a waste of time and money. It also takes a slot away from someone who would actually have a chance of passing.

The physical requirements are extremely demanding.

Carrying a telephone pole down the beach. If there is one person not pulling their weight, the whole team fails.

A former Seal buddy says no way, it'll never happen.

How much more physically challenging is rasp compared to ranger school for wanting to get the "tab". Not like the battalion I was in at the time was giving slots for schools.

I've never been to RASP, but from the guys I went to Ranger School with, they said it wasn't too difficult. Just 8 weeks of getting smoked and not quitting.

I kind of thought that. My only regret after getting out of active duty was not going to efmb but I picked going to usma instead and went the summer time.
