I had just recently submitted all of my paperwork to the Ranger liason who I had been working with since ait reception. I don't know how this will affect my chances of getting to rasp and at this point it seems I have wasted away everything within a minute. The article 15 was due to an altercation I had with a fellow student; it was stupid and something I should have brushed off. Does this ucmj action mean my chances of Ranger are over and how will it affect my opportunities for future endeavors within socom, including other branches? I appreciate any Ranger who could fill me in on this, thank you.
Yes it does. Have you been to JAG to consider appealing the Art. 15?

Technically he did initiate it and used physical force first but I don't know how far that excuse will take me. If I can get it down to a summarized article 15 will that still keep my chances at Rasp entact? I know I made a mistake, a big one, but I just can't believe my lifelong dream could be gone over some pushing and shoving.
Try it. Article 15, while it it is non-judicial punishment can be used for adverse purposes.
