    I know every ranger has had this happen to them. " Oh, my brother was a ranger. "
    "Really. What battalion was he at? ""
    I don't know he was stationed at Fort Leonard Wood, in Missouri. "
    "Oh, tell your brother, who's an MP, he's not a ranger. Green Berets and Marines go to ranger school. They don't go around saying their a ranger."

    As a marine I never understood why they would call it ranger school. Why not call it something else in order to avoid confusion? Ranger tab and ranger scroll are two totally different things. The regiment should be given the respect of being the only organization associated with the term Ranger. Dudes are hard core for sure.

      There should not be any confusion. Understanding the difference requires some common sense (of which is not common) and reasoning (of which thinking [again not required]). Just like basic training, school, and then active duty. Three completely different aspects/stages to a career field.

    There was actually a whole political argument about two candidates running for office who both claimed to be former Rangers yet one candidate was an officer who went through Ranger school and the other Ranger that actually made it through selection and joined Ranger battalion.

      @@_xxcheezybreadxx_8318 sorry I might've remembered the situation wrong but it involved Bryant “Corky” Messner a former Army officer of some kind who went through Ranger school and Donald Bolduc who was a former enlisted and than officer within the army who served as SF officer leading the first SF ODA into Afghanistan and later leading Special operations command. Bryant “Corky” Messner, picked up the title as Army Ranger probably to level the playing field but wasn't in special operations and was very adamant about being called a Ranger, he might've won though. There's a few articles you can read by the Army times and Washington post I think and possibly a few others about the incident, but information mostly talks about Bryant “Corky” Messner claiming to be a Army Ranger and being fact checked.

    What also can add to the confusion is there members of the Ranger Hall of Fame who successfully tabbed out of RS, but were never in the Regiment. Also, the Best Ranger Competition can add confusion as you only have to have successfully tabbed out of RS, not been in the Regiment to compete.

      😂it's a very intense school meant to show you have what it takes to make it through the suck and be a leader, similar to the actual Ranger in battalion but I'm guessing ranger school is a matter of making it to the end vs being the right guy and being proficient in the advanced skills and training of a Ranger operator within battalion.
