A Marine Recon Ranger receives a lot of the same training that SEALS receive, only their mission is somewhat different.

There is no such thing as a Marine Ranger. Some loser Marines who have attended ranger school put the ranger patch under their breast pocket on the cami uniform. The Captain in this article brings up many points, and no solutions. We do not clear a Marines weapons for him after boot camp. How about dedicated CSAR? Probably because we do not have the assets. It will be intresting to see how the USMC plays in SOCOM now that it is a supported command. But to play in it would mean the USMC has to change it's selection process for recon, make it more mature versus who is available.
