Rangers,
To all the brave, and honored Rangers that have served our wonderful country in the past, and present. You all have earned so much, and I have so much respect for you. Growing up, I've dreamed of earning the Ranger Tab and serving with America's best. I do have a question, I am currently in the United States Army as a 12B Combat Engineer. I will be heading to Sapper school soon. My overall goal is to become a Ranger and serve with the best. I have spoken to a recruiter while I deployed. I asked what is the exact role of a Combat Engineer in the Ranger Regiment. He did not really know, so my question is what roles do Combat Engineers play as Rangers? Thank you for you time.
12B Combat Engineer
Re: 12B Combat Engineer
I have never personally seen a 12B in Batt., but I hear they have one SFC slot per batt., basically to work in S-3 and be in charge of putting in orders for demo. The slot may exist, but I never saw one.

Well, now, I guess you do not understand that you are a guest in our home. I can keep locking threads until you learn to respond to counseling. You are at risk of being banned unless you post an introduction.
