We just had a LTC come and speak to us about his experiences in the Army as a doctor so far. During part of his talk, he mentioned that at one point, he was with the 1/75th Rangers, and that he was basically a Ranger as well as a doctor. He said that he went to Ranger school, learned everything they learned, did all the training, and went out with them on missions. People may say I'm crazy, but I think that was just about as badass as you can get.
Does anyone out there have reason to doubt anything he told us? If so, I would love to hear it. I would really hate that this is not possible, but I guess I need to know.
Also, assuming this is true, what would be the way to get to this position? Best choice of specialty/residency? Good ideas for making contacts? Anything that you could offer would be helpful.
Thanks for the responses, ya'll.
