OK, from most texts I've read on the US Army Rangers specifically, together with generally on light infantry, special operations forces, long range pentration units etc- Rogers' Rangers seem to be recognised as the main elite regt- based on their outstanding service in the FIW- from which the contemporary Rangers claim ancestry- as opposed to the older body of Church's Rangers who were famous for their exploits fightin Indians in Metacom's War (1675-76). Now, why aren't the latter older Ranger outfit recognised to a greater extent as ancestors of the contemporary Rangers ?
