1. United States Army Rangers

   United States Army Rangers are U.S. Army personnel who have served in any unit which has held the official designation of"Ranger". The term is commonly used to include graduates of the Ranger School, even if they have never served in a "Ranger" unit; the vast majority of Ranger school graduates never serve in Ranger units and are considered "Ranger qualified".In a broader and less formal sense, the term "ranger" has been used, officially and unofficially, in North America since the 17th century, to describe light infantry in small, independent units—usually companies. The first units to be officially designated Rangers were companies recruited in the New England Colonies to fight against Native Americans in King Philip's War. Following that time, the term became more common in official usage, during the French and Indian Wars of the 18th century. The U.S. military has had "Ranger" companies since the American Revolutionary War. British Army units designated as "Rangers" have often also had historical links of some kind to British North America. The 75th Ranger Regiment is an elite airborne light infantry combat formation within the United States Army Special Operations Command (USASOC). The six battalions of the modern Rangers have been deployed in Korea, Vietnam, Grenada, Panama, Afghanistan and Iraq. The Ranger Regiment traces its lineage to three of six battalions raised in World War II, and to the 5307th Composite Unit (Provisional)—known as "Merrill's Marauders", and then reflagged as the 475th Infantry, then later as the 75th Infantry. The Ranger Training Brigade (RTB)—headquartered at Fort Benning—is an organization under the United States Army Training and Doctrine Command (TRADOC) and is separate from the 75th Ranger Regiment. It has been in service in various forms since World War II. The Ranger Training Brigade administers Ranger School, the satisfactory completion of which is required to become Ranger qualified and to wear the Ranger Tab.

   The United States Army Rangers are an elite rapid-deployment military formation of the United States Army, serving in direct-action operations, raids, reconnaissance, combat search and rescue, and other special operations. They consist of various Ranger units with specialized training, being one of the oldest light-infantry units in the U.S., founded originally in the 17th century but officially recognized during World War II. The 75th Ranger Regiment, the army's premier direct-action raid force, is the best known Ranger unit today. Rangers are selected from the Army ranks through a rigorous selection process and must undergo intensive training.

1. United States Army Rangers

   United States Army Rangers are a type of elite infantry of United States Army. Rangers have served in recognized U.S. Army Ranger units or have graduated from the U.S. Army's Ranger School. The term "Ranger" was first used in North America in the early 17th century; however, the first Ranger company was not officially commissioned until King Philip's War and then they were used in the four French and Indian Wars. Rangers also fought in the American Revolution, the War of 1812, and the American Civil War. The six battalions of the modern Rangers have been deployed in wars in Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan, and Iraq, and saw action in several conflicts, such as those in Panama and Grenada. Of the current active Ranger battalions, two—the 1st and the 2nd—have been in service since reactivation in 1974. The 3rd Ranger Battalion and the headquarters of the 75th Ranger Regiment were reactivated in 1984. The 75th Ranger Regiment is now a light infantry combat formation within the U.S. Army Special Operation Command. The Ranger Regiment traces its lineage to three of six battalions raised in WWII, and to the 5307th Composite Unit —known as “Merrill's Marauders,” and then reflagged as the 475th Infantry, then later as the 75th Infantry.
