I am currently a SrA in the air force interested in making the transfer to army. i am interested in airborne, ranger school, pathfinder, SERE, etc. I was wondering if there is an MOS that can give me all those  school oppurtunities other than infantry. i have been looking into 25C and 25S, but i want to be sure that i make the irght choice. any insight would be a big help.

Not sure what the 25 series is, but for the training you want you should be looking at units first, not at a specific MOS.  For those schools your best bet is either the 75th or SF.  Depending on MOS you may also get those schools with a conventional Airborne assignment, 82nd, 173rd, etc.  All of those units get slots for the high speed schools.  Within those units some MOS' will have a greater probability than others.  But for now I suggest you look at the assignment and then look at the jobs you want to do at that unit.

These may not have all of the answers but go ahead and read through them.  As some of the more proficient and knowledgable members of the board see your question they will be able to provide some better answers and links.

I would also send a PM to JR.  He did a transfer from AF to Army, as well as his brother.  The process with the recruiter and MEPS was painful for both.  Be patient for a reply from JR, he's in the big sandbox and is not on here too often.  Or PM me and I can send it to him via e mail.
