If he completed Ranger training, he can’t say he is Special Forces?

To earn a “tab” you go to ranger school.
The “scroll”, however, is a way of life...

So...going to ranger school does not make one “special forces”

Being in one of the 3 combat Ranger Battalions does. There is a huge difference.

For the short time in was in a Rgr Bn (Got hurt really bad on a jump) when the guys that went to Ranger School got back, they had to have all the bad habits that were trained into them in Ranger school trained out of them.
