Airborne school is easy, just lots of running in boots, but the pace is slow as hell.
Air Assault is more difficult, you need decent upper body strength, and run and road march (although it's only like a 12 miler with a 35 pound ruck). Not going to ranger school is one of my greatest regrets in life. I've been lucky, got into some good units. My time in Long Range Surveillance gave me some of my best memories of the Army. Long as you've been in I'm not telling you anything you don't already know. So long as you can pass the APFT at the 18-21 year old level you can do those schools just fine. > -----Original Message----- > From: Bruce Sorge [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Wednesday, June 27, 2007 12:40 PM > To: CF-Community > Subject: RE: Woot!
