Go to a recruiter and get it in your contract before you sign. It's an option 40 and, once you have that, you will attend BCT, AIT (or OSUT), Airborne school, and then RIP.
If you pass the Ranger Indoctrination Program you will go to one of the Ranger Battalions and serve some time working your way up the food chain before, and if, they ever decide that you're ready for Ranger School.
Ranger School = Tab
Ranger Batt = Scroll
Covertness knows all about this subject, and he might pop his head in to answer anymore questions you might have. If you decide against getting option 40 in your contract, for whatever reason, you can always get Airborne in your contract and try for a RIP spot from there, which could take longer. Up to you.
