If you're looking at going to the 75th .. try the Korea route, a lot of people do. Go to Korea for a year to do a tour in the 2nd ID, mech or light (doesn't matter. Performance does). At the end of your tour you have to come back to CONUS anyway, which makes it easier for the Regiment to get you and really easy for the PERSCOM guys to process. End of Regiment time rolls around, and you go to IOAC, en route to SFAS and SFQC. Volunteer for an overseas battalion and BQ as an 18 Captain. Chances are you'll then be fresh meat for a SWCS tour or SMU tryouts. By then you'll be around 10 years and will be at the decision point for Field Grade or ETS.
As for going to Regiment first, I've known four guys out of 2/75 that did the Korea route. If you really want to go to the 75th, Korea is an excellent route.

Soldier 79936, I'm a little confused by your post. Are you saying you're already in the SF pipeline? If so, what Q class were you?

Soldier, I take this to mean you're already enlisted and advanced through much of the SF pipeline, IE, you've completed the prereq's. SFAS, ACLT (PLDC), (SOPC if you were an 18X). So what Q class are you?

My Rate...or MOS as you Army guys call it is DC {Damage Control}, but I plan on going to Corpsman school for 13 weeks after I make my Rate permenant....so I'll be a firefighter and a nurse...best of both worlds IMHO
