As of last summer, I had heard that the Army had re-opened Ranger School to non-combat arms MOS's. Several of my friends could not get in because there was too large of a back log of applicants. One of my best friends waited about three months at Fort Benning after IOBC before he started Ranger School. He said all of the officers from his class were waiting to get in.

I have heard about EArmyU from my recruiter (and something about a free cpu)when I joined the Army.I do apoligize for the use or SOCM instead of SFMS(no excuse).How would I go about using EArmyU? All I know how to work is AKO .
As far as fundamentals for the medical field I have been in EMS(EMT-B)/ SAR/ Fire Fighting for quite some time.Though putting my mental abilities to the test is what I love along with my physical abilities. Is the Pre-SFMS correspondence course still required and in some small way will it help with selection?
Thank you for any advise given.

What do you think POG stands for
Personal other grunts
When people used to call me a grunt when I was 11B. I used to tell them that is what I make there chicks do when I would F them.
Before you start using terms in the military you might want to find out what they stand for before you start using them.
