Do you have to complete airborne school to go to ranger school?

No, but if you're being sent to Ranger school, you'll more than likely be sent to Airborne school enroute, if you're not already jump qualified. You must be jump qualified to serve in any of the Ranger Battalions, however.


What is the difference between becoming an army ranger and just going to ranger school Can you earn the Ranger badge either way?

Becoming an Army Ranger would mean you have completed and passed RIP, Airborne and Ranger school and belong/serve in a Ranger Batt. There are many 62 day Rangers. These are Soldiers who go through RIP, Airborne and Ranger school and then go back to their original job and unit. Both have Ranger Tabs. Only Ranger's assigned to one of the 75th Ranger Battalions wear the Tab and Scroll.

Are all army rangers airborne?

A Anyone serving in the 75th Ranger Regiment is on active jump status. As for simply being Ranger qualified, being jump qualified isn't a requirement. However, for someone to be sent to Ranger School without being sent to jump school first is rare, but not entirely unheard of. totaly absurd: To be part of the 1st,2nd or any ranger Batt you must pass airborne training You must be jump qualified no if and or buts. The only persons who have gone thru ranger trianing without being jump qualified are trainees during WWII Ive served with the 1st ranger batt,2nd ranger batt,1/509 airborne and 5 special forces.
