Durning landed as a memebere of the 1ID, the Ranger stuff is fabrication - I believe by others, not Durning.
People just don't understand that a CIB/PHM wearer doesn't need to have his resume enhanced!
On the basis of the Ranger exagerration, I'd question his presence at the Malmedy massacre as the victims there were primarily from a FA observation Bn.
