  • 1st Ranger Regiment
rdfs:comment
  • The 1st Ranger Regiment was a United States Army infantry regiment that participated in Operation Deliverance and suffered major casualties and loss of equipment in the process. All soldiers of the 1st Ranger Regiment were either killed in action or converted by the Chimera, except for Nathan Hale, who was the sole survivor.
  • The 1st Ranger Regiment is one of the UNSC Army’s most flexible Special Operations groups. Its members are trained in various forms of combat, including aerial and marine insertions to maximize their effectiveness in planet-side conflicts. They receive some training in space and extravehicular combat; however, because of this is largely the responsibility of the Marine Corps, the Rangers’ exoatmospheric training is not as intense. However, because of their airborne training, soldiers do gain experience in high-altitude, low-orbit drops and train in the usage of Single-Occupant Exoatmospheric Insertion Vehicle (SOEIV). Consisting of only three battalions, the 1st Ranger is also one of the most elite Special Operations groups in the Army, thus placing it barely below the 105th Marine Expedit

They receive some training in space and extravehicular combat; however, because of this is largely the responsibility of the Marine Corps, the Rangers’ exoatmospheric training is not as intense.

Consisting of only three battalions, the 1st Ranger is also one of the most elite Special Operations groups in the Army, thus placing it barely below the 105th Marine Expeditionary Unit (Special Operations Capable)/ODST. Because of the Marine Corps being a precedent higher than the Army, the Rangers are often used in a more defensive role in comparison to their Marine Special Forces counterparts, leading to an amplified rivalry between the two units.
