RASP for 75th Rangers?
Or Ranger School.
Totally different things.

What’s the kid’s rank and MOS?
If he is an infantry officer, I would say this is just expected; it’s prestigious, but it’s basically required if he wants his career to go anywhere. If he is enlisted, particularly if he isn’t in 75th Ranger Refiment, I would say it’s pretty prestigious and demonstrates considerable resilience and discipline on his part.
Sadly, most army (and I assume other branch) schools suffer from prestige decay as time goes on. The Army needs a gut-check school to differentiate the truly exceptional from the mediocre and below. Originally, it was Airborne school, but as Airborne School became a requirement and officers/NCOs were rewarded for putting Soldiers through it, it became a vacation school and lost its prestige. Ranger School was the successor to Airborne School, but it is suffering from the same illness. When I went through it, it was male only, with a certain level of experience required. I went to a Ranger School graduation a few years ago and they were graduating women and cadets, so I’m guessing the rigor has fallen off pretty significantly.

lol , nigga no.
When was Airborne school ever considered PRESTIGIOUS?
You spend 2 weeks learning how to jump from a perfectly working airplane 5 times and try not to roll your ankle when you land.
Ranger School is considerably more difficult than Airborne. Compare the number of Soldiers you see walking around with an Airborne tab vs. a Ranger tab.
Shit, getting your EIB is more difficult than Airborne.

Ranger school has 3 phases (though the first phase is actually 2 phases): 1) Benning phase (which has RAP week and Patrols), 2: Mountain phase, and 3) Florida/Swamp phase.
Each phase is separately graded and you have to pass a phase to get to the next phase. You can recycle any phase (except RAP week) twice: once for failing leadership and once for failing peer evals. If you fail any phase for the same thing twice, you get either booted out of the course or given the chance to recycle to day 1.
If he fails the course, chances are he won’t be reassigned, but he will be second in line for a PL role if there is another guy there with a tab. Most infantry officers who don’t get a tab as a LT will go back as a captain around career course or switch to a new branch.
