Can a marine become a army ranger?
Certainly. You get out of the Marines at your normal separation date, then reenlist into the Army for the 75th Ranger Regiment. As far as walking into your Marine Corps first sergeant's office and telling him, "First Sergeant, I want to be an Airborne Ranger! I want to live a life that's filled with danger!" he will either laugh at you, put you on additional training for three days for having heretical thoughts, tell you about Marine Recon, or all three at the same time. Ranger school is a school (just like airborne, pathfinder, etc). Yes, servicemen from other branches of the military (and foreign militaries) are allowed to attend Ranger school to receive the Ranger tab. Graduating from Ranger school does not mean you are in a Ranger battalion (or a Ranger, for that matter.) To be in a Ranger battalion, you must be in the Army (since all Ranger Batts are army units.) Marines do not need to enlist with the Army to become a Ranger. Much like a any Army Soldier can elect to receive Ranger Training, so can a Marine. Actually, there are documented cases of Marines that have scored the highest in their Ranger class because they were more prepared for the stress. As a perspective Marine, I have looked into this personally and done the research. If you have any further questions, seek a recruiter, because he can help you more. A Marine can earn his Ranger Tab, he is only considered a tabbed Marine. He will not be able to wear the tab (although some Marines elect to sew the Ranger tab under the front pocket) A Marine will often be nicknamed, ie. Ranger LoGiudice, or some other acquired nickname. I served with 1st Recon Bn, 1st MarDiv and our unit tried to send one Recon Marine per Ranger School Class. I attended Class 3-95, you might remember that class, as 4 Ranger students died in the Florida swamp phase. I am now Ranger Tabbed. I cannot publicly display it the USMC uniform. However, if you get out of the USMC and enlisted in the Army, you could then join a Ranger/SF unit, and therefore be a considered a Recon Ranger, I served as a Army National Guard Medic for seven years after serving on the active side of the Marine Corps. I am proud of all my military service. My former MOS was 8654 - Recon Marine, Airborne, Scuba qualified. I the new Recon MOS is 0326. Recon is the MOS to have if you have the heart. I attended the best schools and my career was on the right path, not a life for a married Marine. A side note: Ranger School was no joke.

You make what an E1 makes in three months. However the US Marine Corps does not pay for your uniforms or items that you need ie: hygene, laundry equip.
