[edit] TRADOC?

Does Ranger school fall under TRADOC? I don't think it does. Anybody know for sure? I believe it falls under Ranger Training Brigade, which is not a TRADOC unit as far as I know. --Nobunaga24 02:08, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

The TRADOC website has a list of 33 schools that are under it's command, including "Ranger School, Fort Benning, Ga." Is it possible that the RTB is under TRADOC? — Linnwood 02:38, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

Could be, but I could swear RTB was outside of the TRADOC loop. I've been out for a couple years now, and haven't kept up with all the recent changes. There has been a lot of reorganization as of late. Maybe it was always a TRADOC unit. --Nobunaga24 02:45, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

When I was in (1996-2004), RTB was part of the Infantry School, which is part of Tradoc. --R smiht83 2 August 2006

• • • Ranger School and RTB fall under TRADOC, the only training unit on Fort Benning that is not TRADOC is RTD(Ranger Training Detachment, ie: Regimental Pre-Ranger, ROP, RIP)

[edit] Ranger School

I think someone's having a mick-take with this article...

[edit] Unjust revert?

Why was my addition / reformulation of the physical effects reverted by Tmaull (with no discussion) ? --DT

You removed information I thought was pertinent to the article.Tmaull 20:35, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

Sorry - that wasn't my intention. I was trying to expand the article and give the physical effects their own paragraph. I'm pretty sure almost all of the original content is still there. - DT

I think the part about how Ranger School students go from being in the best shape of their lives to the worst is a good illustrator of the physical demands of the school. Do you agree? Tmaull 03:27, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

Not necessarily the worst shape, but certainly the most exhausted. After all, students are exercising constantly for close to 3 straight months. --DT

[edit] deaths during training

Why no mention of the deaths during the florida phase? 61.95.65.186 (talk) 07:04, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
