What does your military record look like? If you are performing above your peers thats the first step. You'll need to take some other courses before considering SF. Also, SF is its own MOS.

A soldier can acquire both Ranger and Sapper tabs. Sappers are more focused on Engineering (demo, knots) more so than a Ranger. Both are elite groups of soldiers.

sapper school is a joke, the only reason is hard during the physical aspect is because theyre 12B need i say more? theyre pt is nothing hard, its your basic 101st infantry morning PT, ive seen sapper tab guys be outdone by 13B & my 11B destroy em. my opinion is just like marines or were the hardest blah blah, put it this way, females get sapper tabs, they dont get RANGER tabs!!!

How do u sign up to go to special forces school or training

[dustin720]

Do you have to be a Combat Engineer to earn a Sapper tab? Or can a Infantryman go to the school also?
