The Ranger Tab is a service school military decoration of the United States Army signifying completion of the 61-day-long Ranger School course in small-unit infantry combat tactics in woodland, mountain, and swamp operations.

Those graduating from Ranger School are presented with the Ranger Tab, which is worn on the upper shoulder of the left sleeve of the Army Combat Uniform, as specified in Army Regulation 670-1, "Wear and Appearance of Army Uniforms and Insignia." A smaller metal version of the tab is worn on the Army Service Uniform. Wearing the tab is permitted for the remainder of a soldier's military career.

U.S. Marines presented with the Ranger Tab are not authorized to wear it on their uniforms. U.S. Airmen presented with the Ranger Tab are authorized to wear it on their uniforms pursuant to AFI 36-2903 (Dress and Appearance). The tab must be worn in a properly presented way on the upper crest of the left sleeve. As of 2014, about 300 airmen have successfully completed the Army Ranger School and have been awarded the Ranger Tab.

In the Canadian Army, personnel who have attained the Ranger Tab are permitted to wear it on their green tunics.
