75th RCT

The 75th Ranger Infantry Regiment (Airborne), often referred to as the 75th RCT (Ranger Combat Team), traces its lineage to the elite Ranger units formed during World War II. Reactivated during the Vietnam War, the 75th RCT consisted of specialized Long Range Reconnaissance Patrol (LRRP) companies tasked with deep reconnaissance and direct action missions behind enemy lines. Throughout its service, the unit earned a reputation for exceptional skill, courage, and effectiveness in unconventional warfare. The 75th RCT's legacy continues today as part of the 75th Ranger Regiment, a premier special operations force in the U.S. Army.
