I echo what GR says; however, if you are still interested in the Army as a career, then the Ranger Regiment might be an avenue you want to explore. Having said that, you have a lot more soul searching to do. I say that because if you want to be an officer or non-commissioned officer in the Army, regardless of MOS, you need to be a 'people person'. Because in those positions it's not about you, but instead it's about your people. To lead them you have to be a 'people person', otherwise you will make ill-advised decisions for those for whom you will be responsible.

It's not about the rank, it's about the service ... service to your comrades in arms and dedication to the mission.

Just my $ .02.
