The 75th Ranger Regiment, also known as the Army Rangers,[3] is the premier light infantry and direct-action raid force of the United States Army Special Operations Command.[4] The 75th Ranger Regiment is also part of Joint Special Operations Command via the Regimental Reconnaissance Company (RRC).[2][5] The regiment is headquartered at Fort Benning, Georgia,[6] and is composed of a regimental headquarters company, a military intelligence battalion, a special troops battalion, and three Ranger battalions.
The 75th Ranger Regiment primarily handles direct action raids in hostile or sensitive environments, often killing or capturing high-value targets. Other missions include airfield seizure, special reconnaissance, personnel recovery, clandestine insertion, and site exploitation.[5][7] The regiment can deploy one Ranger battalion within eighteen hours of alert notification.[5]
The 75th Ranger Regiment is one of the U.S. military's most extensively used units. On 17 December 2020, it marked 7,000 consecutive days of combat operations.[8]
