Tier II...Help

Angellu77 · Post by **Angellu77** » December 8th, 2005, 10:48 am

I am in the Tier II category and want to see if there is any waivers for this. Im prior service (US Coast Guard). I was told that since I am prior service I cant get into ranger training. But I also seen someone on here state that they were prior service and got in. Im not one to settle for no you cant. I believe there is always a way to do things, just have to find the way. Ive done research and havent found anything in regards to this kind of waiver.

Other than that I am mentally ready and willing to take any route to get to what I want. If I have to sign into the army as infantry w/ airborne and wait I will but normally there is more than one way to do things, just have to find the way. This site seems to be very informative and I would like, no I would appreciate some assistance.

I went through OSUT with a prior service guy, and he got a Ranger contract while in OSUT. He was just straight 11B before that, so it is possible to get a contract, just depends on how bad you want to get it. I think the only requirements he had to have was a 270+ PT score and a 110+ GT ASVAB score. Good luck.

Even better, maybe you could aspire to actually BE a Ranger, instead of just being called one.

I like that, Aspire to be a Ranger rather than being called one. You should write that down.

Golden words.

Alpha Sharks, Im not exactly sure why my integrity is suspect, Sir with all due respect elaborate your Acquisition. Im just trying to get some information and found Ranger X's words inspirative.

You're about to confuse the man.

He's not eligible for one.

What he read on here was about a DOS getting an Option 40.

That not a full out prior service.

What your guy got added to his contract in training was something else entirely. They have a different mission for soldiers in training than for someone of the street.

If, I may be permitted to ask a quesition, SFC Hit_it. When you say prior service barring chances to obtain a option 40, do they characterize prior Active Army service under the clause "Prior Service"? All the searches I have made, make reference to prior service being ex. Coast Guard, USMC, Navy, etc.

Thanks for your time.

A person who served in ANY branch of service is considered PRIOR SERVICE for enlistment purposes.

A person who serve ONLY in the reserve components and only has 180 days OR LESS of active prior service is considered a "days of service" DOS, or Glossary NPS applicant.

They may be eligible for an option 40 in certain cases.

Once a person has served more tha 180 days of active service they are no longer eligible.
