I know rangers have to be jump qualified but do they do combat jumps on a regular basis at least for this current war?
As far as I know, only two combat jumps have occurred since the GWOT began in 2001. The first was Operation Bright Star in 2001 in Afghanistan, in which 147 Rangers made a combat jump into Afghanistan. The other was Operation Option North in 2003 in Iraq, which involved 1,000 jumpers drawn from the 173rd Airborne Brigade, and US Air Force's 18 Expeditionary Force. That jump was more a matter of posturing than necessity, however - the airfield was already secured by the time the jump occurred, and was more than capable of handling any aircraft necessary. Before 2001, there hadn't been any combat jumps made since Desert Storm, and only 12 jumps (which seems to me to indicate only 12 personnel) were credited for that one.
