"Acknowledging the fact that a Ranger is a more elite Soldier who arrives at the cutting edge of battle by land, sea, or air, I accept the fact that as a Ranger my country expects me to move further, faster, and fight harder than any other Soldier."——from the Ranger Creed"Rangers, lead the way!"——General Norman CotaOmaha Beach, June 1944adapted as the official motto of the U.S. Army RangersThe history of the U.S. Army Rangers is filled with courage, daring, and unsurpassed fighting skills. The unit's success is directly attributable to its rigorous training, and the Ranger Handbook represents the core of those battlefield skills.Paladin Press is proud to be able to offer the newly released revised edition of the Ranger Handbook.

History

Military

The history of the American Ranger is a long and colorful saga of courage, daring, and outstanding leadership. It is a story of men whose skills in the art of fighting have seldom been surpassed. The United States Army Rangers are an elite military formation that has existed, in some form or another, since the American Revolution. A group of highly-trained and well-organized soldiers, US Army Rangers must be prepared to handle any number of dangerous, life-threatening situations at a moment's notice-and they must do so calmly and decisively. This is their handbook. Packed with down-to-earth, practical information, The Ranger Handbook contains chapters on Ranger leadership, battle drills, survival, and first aid, as well as sections on military mountaineering, aviation, waterborne missions, demolition, reconnaissance and communications.
