Pardon my Beadlebugesque rantings......
WHY THE FUCK CAN'T THE MEDIA SUPPORT OUR TROOPS TODAY LIKE THEY DID WAY BACK WHEN.
THEY MADE THESE GUYS SOUND LIKE FUCKING SUPERHEROES.....NOW ALL THEY DO IS TREAT US LIKE CRIMINALS!!!!

Please accept my apologies....my image editing skills are usually much better than this, but I am at my Uncles house and at the mercy of Microsoft Paint.
I found this article in a local Michigan paper while researching my family tree. It is dated February 2, 1945. It was split into several columns across several pages of the paper, I have done my best to piece it together and make it readable.
I tried reading it aloud to my Uncle.....but I got choked up. Stories like this are what made me want to become a Ranger.
I cannot describe how I felt to read a "real-time" account of something that is such a prominent story within Ranger History.
Here it is:

Over 400 enemy dead. 1 Ranger lost, 2 wounded. Over 500 prisoners rescued.
All in 15 minutes.
Rangers have always led the fucking way.
