[QUOTE=coloccw;229377][quote=bobbyfairbanks;229239]I know for a fact that the only way to earn a Ranger tab is to go through the school.

Not entirely true. Ther is a provision for soldiers that served in a Ranger company during Vietnam to wear the tab. I don't agree with it, just putting it out there. Nothing like this would fly in 75th today.

That's what I was saying, there were guys who wore the tab who didn't go to RS, I don't recall seeing guys who had been in for four or five years wearing them, mostly the guys who had been in for quite a while. It's not like I'm walking up to senior NCO's and officers and grilling them on how they got their tab.

Regardless, this douche bag was no Ranger or SF. Besides, as far as I can remember, I don't think I've ever seen a Ranger/SF/MP. I'm not sure he would have gotten through RIP in that physical condition.
