75th Rangers

The Regiment must remain capable of fighting anytime, anywhere, against any enemy, and winning.+ So reads the charter of America+s elite fighting force, the 75th Rangers. What began as a unit called up by FDR for -a dangerous and hazardous mission+ in Burma in World War II, remains to this day one of the most flexible, highly trained, and rapidly deployable light infantry forces in the U.S. military. 75th Rangers offers a rare behind-the-scenes look at this storied regiment. A Ranger veteran and a celebrated military photographer, Russ Bryant captures Rangers in their tactical environment from Hunter Army Air Field to Fort Benning, Georgia, from Fort Lewis, Washington, to deployment in Germany, giving readers a clear, close-up sense of what it takes to be a part of the 75th Rangers: the training, the mission, the personnel, the equipment-and the specialized skills that make this force a match for the whole range of conventional and Special Ops targets.Bryant, Russ is the author of '75th Rangers', published 2005 under ISBN 9780760321119 and ISBN 0760321116.
