Sapper!
Excuse the BS...
Sapper, the Army has six Airborne BCTs (1-4/82, 4/25, 173), and that number will likely decrease.
Don't know how this discussion continues. If Cajun's desire is to go to jump school look at the ground combat forces, rather than the Navy reserve.
DIRCOM folks going to jump school ir kicking in doors are definitely the exception.
Yes I didn't say anything about brigade sized elements, just making the point that large level echelons that are not made entirely of combat arms specialties have jump school at their disposal. The 173 etc etc are the actual high speed door kickers. Bottom line is, he was looking to get into the school, he can definitely give it a shot because the openings are there, albeit probably just hard to get one in USNR. I know in any enlistment on the Army side you can probably land a jump school slot if you ask for it enough. Being part of ground forces has nothing to do with jump school if you want to go, remember the parent unit pays for it so if the army approves, you go.
