Joining the USMC, (becoming a rifleman). Or becoming a member of the 75th Rangers? I really want to see some action; but I don't want to end up dead. Therefore which one of these are more ELITE and intelligent trained: which automately leades to your success for survival. I hear marines have the highest casualty rate: but I assume this is because they're first in. However; correct me if im wrong; "But don't SEALS and 75th Rangers go first into a war zone: before conventional forces?" The 75th Rangers are actually the 'first in.' Therefore I need to know the casualty rate for the 75th Rangers? I'm trying to figure out who is more ELITE, and intelligent: to be beside in a war zone. 75th Ranger or Marine?
