JOINT BASE MYER-HENDERSON HALL, Va. (Army News Service, July 1, 2014) -- Soldiers with the Army's only all-black Ranger company fought bravely, endured extreme conditions, and served with distinction during the Korean War, according to the veterans and the Army's top NCO.
Four members of the elite, segregated outfit -- the 2nd Ranger Infantry Company (Airborne) -- were guests of Sgt. Maj. of the Army Raymond F. Chandler III at a Twilight Tattoo here, June 25 that honored non-commissioned officers.

I knew Ranger James Queen, the company XO. He was inducted into the Ranger Hall of fame in 1994.
