Posted: 12/31/1969 Name: Joe Mattison Message: Fellow Rangers: I'm being asked for some help in attempting to clarify the "Killed in Training" Roster that is maintained by 3rd Ranger Battalion. They've done a pretty good job of maintaining the Records from the late 90s onward, but those Killed in Training prior to that, are "lost". They have the names, and they have the years, but they don't have what Company the Ranger was assigned to, and they don't know where it was, that the Ranger was killed, while training with 3/75. If anyone has any recollection of Rangers from 3/75 who were killed in Training at any time, and would like to help with this project, I would be very happy to email you the list, that was sent to me from 3/75. I've been able to pin down a couple of the names, but to be honest with you, many of them were killed in training during those years that I was back in the Mountain Ranger Camp, and I don't have that kind of memory anymore. I'd love to hear from Rangers who served with 3/75 from 1984-1998. I'll email you the list as I received it, and you can look it over, to see if you have any rememberances, on those who were killed in training with 3/75, during that time frame. Thanks Rangers. Joe |

Posted: 12/31/1969 Name: Michael M. Keohane Message: I looked forward to my visit to the RMC. Did manage to meet some of the "kids" at the club Thursday night. Volunteered to "help out" at the fish fry & critter cooking but got ambushed by a jeep while I was taking an early morning recon of "downtown". Dahlonega Friday morning. Would have liked to have met more Mountain Rangers and exchange true tales of the old days. Still intend to move to Dahlonega this August. I promised Ranger Mark Jordan some "Yankee" cooking and the invite will be open |
