Posted: 09/12/2022 Name: Bob Suchke Message: Sad news to report. I just received word that Lieutenant General David E. Grange passed away on Sunday evening 11 September. Only other details are that he will be buried at the Fort Mitchell, Alabama cemetery near Fort Benning later this month. Further details will be posted when available. General Grange is an icon in the Ranger Community and his presence will be sorely missed. RLTW! |

Posted: 08/05/2022 Name: Bob Williams Message: The USMRA and 5th RTB will join forces to bring Rangers old and new together with their families in an old fashion potluck dinner at Camp Merrill. The event will be held at the Overhang Club on Friday, 7 October 2022. The dinner will begin at 5:30 pm. We will be offering a sign-up sheet online to help you decide which of your favorite dishes to bring. The meats will be provided. Of course, if you want to BBQ up some ribs, we won’t turn them away. Spouses are encouraged to join in the fellowship. There will be bounce houses for the kids and a raffle or two. Bring your chairs and a canopy if you have one – just in case. Mark you calendars now. More details will be posted soon. This event is not open to the public. All USMRA members and guest along with 5th RTB members and guest are welcome. |
