  United States Army Rangers - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Other than the regiments and separate companies of riflemen from Pennsylvania and the states to the south, who really functioned as light infantry rather than rangers, the Continental Army only formed two functional ranger units.
Other units in the Continental Army either used the term ranger in their designation or were commonly called rangers, but did not serve in that capacity in the traditional sense.
Rangers in the Ranger Regiment believe that the term "Army Ranger" is reserved solely for someone who serves within the 75th Ranger Regiment.

Rangers were organized in 1756 by Major Robert Rogers, a native of New Hampshire, who recruited nine companies of American colonists to fight for the British during the French and Indian War.
Ranger techniques and methods of operation were an inherent characteristic of the American frontiersmen; however, Major Rogers was the first to capitalize on them and incorporate them into the fighting doctrine of a permanently organized fighting force.
Unlike Rangers of other eras in the 20th century who trained in the United States or in friendly nations overseas, LRP and Rangers in Vietnam were activated, trained and fought in the same geographical areas in Vietnam.

 aggressive towards other dogs at dog park - Boxer Board   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Instead of maintaining a respectful distance from the other dog, Ranger tries to hump the other dog after it verbalizes that it does not want to be bothered.
At first, Ranger was really happy about the dog and he spent the first hour in the house trying to play with him.
We think that having the Pomeranian around made Ranger insecure about his place, which is why he feels he need to prove himself now to other dogs at the dog park.

 Saving Private Ryan: 2nd Ranger Battalion
For Operation Overlord, the 2nd and 5th Ranger Battalions were teamed up (on May 9th, 1944) and designated the Provisional Ranger Group and were temporarily attached to the 116th Infantry Regiment of the 29th Infantry Division.
Although the blue diamond was the official 2nd Ranger insignia, and was worn into battle on D-Day, it was not popular among the Rangers themselves due to its resemblance to the Sunoco logo.
The only other Ranger unit to use the diamond design was the 5th Ranger Battalion, which eventually discarded it in favor of the scroll design favored by all other Ranger units.

 FM 34-36 Chptr 5 - Intell & Elect Wfare Supp to Rang Operations
Rangers have always relied upon timely and accurate intelligence support for mission success, whether in the forests of North America during the French and Indian War climbing a cliff in Normandy during World War II; or exiting an aircraft at 500 feet over a Grenadian airfield.
This is important because ranger commanders must consider the impact of all of their activities on the civilian population.
Rangers are often the first to encounter the enemy and can confirm or deny friendly assessments of threat organization, equipment, capabilities, and morale.

 Dog Owner's Guide: The Mixed Breed dog
Ranger, Pavlov, General, and Muffin are all mixed breed dogs adopted from animal shelters or obtained from a friend or neighbor whose unspayed bitch was romanced by the dog down the street.
However, mixed breed dogs appear to outnumber purebreds by a substantial number, possibly because more of them enter community animal shelters and fewer are likely to be reclaimed by their owners.
Even worse is a combination of these breeds with others that have a tendency towards animal aggression, independence, or stubbornness; thus Chow-Akita or German Shepherd-Alaskan Malamute mixes can be more than a handful and potentially dangerous in the wrong hands.
