:48 does it get any more BADASS than this guy?! Sergeant Major Merriiken?! WHAT!? A badass Merican named SGM Merriken. Only in Regiment man. Get some SGM. RLTW.
I've been thinking about the future of arctic warfare. How in the near future it will become one of the most necessary things for our modern military, and how we don't have a teir 2 special forces unit specializing in arctic warfare. If it's something that the DOD is considering I'd love to know. Thank you.
Well, I'd argue 4th IBCt of the 10th Mtn should be brought back to take 1/11's place (non-airborne) in Alaska. Mountain, air assault, and cold weather light infantry troops in support of 2/11's airborne operations in an arctic environment. EDIT: forget to mention, they should have an LRS unit up there too.
SF has ODAs specialized in mountain warfare. If the need was that great, the Ranger Regiment would shift their training syllabus at the unit level to meet that need and they still do mountain warfare training currently.
Because of General Creighton Abrams, as then- Chief of Staff of the Army, then and there, came 1st and 2d Ranger Battalion in 1974, and , My Unit, 3d Ranger Battalion on 03 October AD 1984. I Myself AM a Former Marine, however, to the Day of My ☠️, I will always be a More Elite Soldier, id est, RANGER. Sua Sponte, Rangers Lead The Way. 🇺🇸🇺🇲🪖💣💥🔥🪂‼️
Abrams Charter has handicapped the organization and culture of the Regiment from the beginning. If the Regiment could leave some of this stuff behind, it might have better retention. But it's not the only problem. First, it should shutdown the revolving door of officers who cycle through just to pad their resume. And like the rest of the selections, there shouldn't be separate pipelines for officers and senior enlisted. It's always been pretty scummy to have people do something you won't do yourself. I don't think I know any veterans from the Regiment that completely respect it or how its ran.
@@RagnarB175 just saying he spoke his opinion and instead of giving any useful insight on why you think the charter is good, you argued from a position of authority with an insult. It’s a useless charter for regiment and that’s a fact.
@@Steven-nx6cw I think you're trying to respond to someone else. I criticized the charter in my original comment in this thread. I wasn't a fan of it when I was in Regiment and I'm not now.
What planet are you on? It is the army’s premier light infantry unit. Google is right at your finger tips, but any research or intelligence behind a statement from a marine isn’t to be expected, clearly.
Earth :) Yes, I was a marine but now serving in the regiment. We are DA and recce unit, now do we have the capability of a light infantry unit...sure we do. But for the most part that is out dated and would be a waste of our time and resources.@@nate4716
I mean an infantry unit has no meaning outside of soldiers that primarily meet combat through moving with their own feet. People apply this idea that infantry = conventional or not special. Almost all SOF are infantry at their heart and it's why rucking is often a primary means of selection.
Togami and Melendez. 2 of the most savage bat boys I’ve ever met
RANGERS LEAD THE WAY!
MSG Melendez!! No better way to depicted true motivation then to put this man on your video!!!!
God Bless our Rangers, My Great Uncle was a Ranger Storming the Beach on D-Day living to tell the story

You guys are awesome 👌🏾

You sound stupid
@@johnathangonzalez2395 he speaks what everyone has spoken for years, you sound like an officer🙄
@@Steven-nx6cw That's strange, never heard an officer speak such a way. But I'm not sure why it would matter.

Rangers are not an infantry unit......LOL. This is why they lose out of top recruits who pick other sof units to go to...smh

It is literally the most elite infantry unit in the world.
