Random thought of the moment.

I think there were 5,000 Rangers on the ground in Somalia.

That number sounds low to me!

Now that I ponder that.......



SB, you are right. At least 10K HAD to be on the ground.


I wonder how many Rangers there were in the Panama invasion? 50K?

No kidding. I used to wonder on missions out to the Hoi Chi Min Trail (in II Corp Area of RVN) that if we were going to the border region for a look see, who the hell was supplying the intel of the enemy's movement out there if it weren't us?

Then I read John Pilasters' book in the '90's, SOG. Then I learned a great deal of truly great Americans of the highest order that scrificed all for us lowly LRRP's leaving us a small measure to complete our missions (& that helped immensely).
