Can you wear a U.S. Army Special Forces Patch with a U.S. Army Ranger Patch? PDF Print E-mail
Saturday, 15 May 2010 16:50
Yes. Now let's clarify that answer. Traditionally U.S. Army soldiers wear both patches (i.e. the shoulder patches on their BDU Uniform and Class A's) if they started their service with the U.S. Army 75th Ranger Regiment (having gone through and completed U.S. Army Ranger School and then served with a U.S. Army Ranger Battalion for several years) and then entered U.S. Army Special Forces.  However, some U.S. Army Special Forces Officers that did not serve with the U.S. Army 75th Ranger Regiment have gone through U.S. Army Ranger School (for the training) and then returned to their U.S. Army Special Forces assignment, though they only completed U.S. Army Ranger School and should not be confused with having served with a U.S. Army Ranger Battalion.

Captain Kangaroo and Mr. Rogers were members of SOF. PDF Print E-mail
Saturday, 15 May 2010 16:42
Fact: Captain Kangaroo, was not a member of U.S. Special Forces nor was he a member of the any other service in the U.S. SOF community. Captain Kangaroo, whose real name was Robert James Keeshan, did serve in World War II, as a member of the U.S. Marine Corps Reserves but did not see combat, as he had enlisted too late. Mr. Rogers, was not a U.S. Navy SEAL who served in Vietnam and had twenty five confirmed kills. Mr. Rogers, whose real name is Fred McFeely Rogers, never served in the U.S. Military. It's a disserve to the memory of both Captain Kangaroo and Mr. Rogers to perpetuate these myths. Both stories serve as reminders that myths and hoaxes continue to be circulated and believed. If you get an email that contains a suspicious story, it's pretty simple to do a little checking before passing that suspicious story along. The U.S. SOF Community already has so many myths to battle already, let's help them reduce and eliminate any that we can.
