Some Ranger Pix

[Tracer112]

Gentlemen,

I have a request of a photo. It was taken during my support days (at 3/75) in the mid 90's. It was on a training mission at K22 (is that place still around?). It was during exfil, and I was waiting to load the exfil bird. The rotar wash was kicking up debree so I was covering the eyes of a simulated cas (that was strapped in a skidco) with my hand. Don't remember if there was eye pro on him or not. My Kpot cover had a square repair patch on the right side, the chin strap was wrongfully placed with the snap on the right side as well. The pic was in the days of BDUs and older equipment, so should be safe for any OPSEC concerns.

I remember seeing the pic in the database/network drive. They also had the pic blown up and hanging outside the BAS pre '02. I'd wish I had gotten an e-copy before I left. I'd appreciate any help with possibly getting a copy.

Thank you for your time.

Not sexy, not high-speed yet equally as important as a Ranger rifle platoon.

Two weeks ago, 2D Battalion conducted inventories and maintenance on equipment and systems following two weeks of training. Companies adhered to the Battalion's Recovery Standard Operating Procedures cleaning and dispatching vehicles, maintaining weapons, and accounting for and correcting equipment deficiencies. A focus on maintenance is essential to the Battalion's readiness.
