Posted: 12/31/1969 Name: Joe Mattison Message: A couple more "tidbits" of Ranger History. General Stan McChrystal, Commander of ISAF Forces in Afghanistan was at one time, the Company Commander of A co., 3rd Ranger Battalion, in 1986. He eventually went on to Command 2nd Ranger Battalion, and the 75th Ranger Regiment. Another very successful Ranger/General Officer is LTG Benjamin Mixon. LTG Mixon was the "original" Company Commander of C Co., 3rd Ranger Battalion, in 1984. He later went on to Command 3/325th Airborne Combat Team (ABCT), Vicenza, Italy in 1993. LTG Mixon is now the Commander of US Army Forces Pacific Command (USARPAC). LTG Mixon is an ROTC graduate of North Georgia College. |

Calm him down and tell him to be nice to the nurses. Sonny is in bad shape and may lose his leg, so encourgment means alot. When you take a knee and pray to the great Ranger, include Sonny. |
