The 75th Ranger Regiment has several openings for majors and promotable captains seeking to serve in a key developmental or post-KD broadening assignment with an elite Army unit.
Male and female officers interested in serving with the Ranger Regiment must be in year groups 2003 to 2006, and be available for assignment from December 2016 to the summer of 2018.
Officers must be branched in one of several designated combat, combat support and combat service support career fields.
While the application window will remain open until Aug. 10, unit officials encourage officers to submit application packets as early possible for follow-on processing.
Interested officers must consult MilPer Message 16-105, dated April 11, for information on preparing an application packet.
After an initial screening by unit leaders, selected officers will be invited to attend a five-day assessment in person at Fort Leavenworth, Kan.
The regiment's selection and training company will administer certain tests at Leavenworth, to include the Ranger Fitness Test (58 push-ups, 69 sit-ups, a five mile run in 40 minutes or less) and a 12-mile foot march with 35-pound rucksack and weapon in less than three hours.
The assessment also will include a personal appearance and interview before a selection board of senior leaders from the 75th Regiment.
Officers should submit application packets online to 75officerrecruit@soc.mil, with a courtesy copy being provided to their assignment officer at the Human Resources Command.
