Army Ranger Breaks Down All The Gear He Takes On A Night Mission | Loadout | Insider Business

Sgt. 1st Class Jacob Braun breaks down every piece of gear a US Army Ranger would carry in their aviator kit bag during a night-raid mission. The bag includes protective gear, ammunition, and a Samsung Galaxy phone. Braun explains why each item is integral to a Ranger's mission. According to the Army, Rangers are the branch's "premier special operations light infantry raid force."
According to Braun, Rangers specialize in infiltrating enemy territory, completing their objective, and rapidly withdrawing, often at night. The Army's 75th Ranger Regiment is headquartered at Fort Benning, Georgia (soon to be renamed Fort Moore).
Editor's Note: at :27, footage shows a US Marine in a joint-training exercise with the US Army's 75th Ranger Regiment. We regret the error.

    I’ve been lucky to work with SF, SEALs and Marine Raiders in training. The Rangers were the most impressive dudes I’ve ever seen. They were so fast and so fundamentally sound. My soldiers were in awe of them and I was glad we got to train with them. Other people around the Army including the 160th will tell you how squared away they are. It’s funny that they don’t always get a lot of credit compared to other units. I’m sure they like it that way though

    Nah man Id disagree the older genreation of green berets are so incredibly professional. The rangers i worked with were at up as far as rangers go. still more professional compared to conventional units but GB can definitly get on point faster smoother and easier than rangers. Its takes a battalion of rangers to do what an ODA of GB do. Going back to the generational thing the younger cats regaudless of unit is ate up to high hell. so entitled they are.

    @@abricots5588 because the United States was founded on Christianity thus the United States military falls under the US government making it a Christian based military but with the exception soldiers having any individual religion they want granted by our constitutional rights. Now being gay/ homosexuality is a sin in the eyes of God and an abomination to Christianity. It’s always been tradition for the military to recruit the young men and women from high school as an early career which usually the military is good for you. If you’re 18 which is legal age, you don’t need parents approval obviously but point being you can do whatever you’d like with your life as in a career from that point. They can recruit 17 year olds but they need an adult’s signature to actually process in. I don’t believe it’s such a bad thing for young people to go into the military as long as their lives aren’t wasted with toxic and/or corrupt leader ship. It’s also not the military’s job to inform you that your kids are interested in joining. That’s the child’s choice if he wants to inform his family on his aspirations. The military isn’t forcing anyone to join. Everyone has their own free will. Now gay books shouldn’t be in schools because they’re pretty disgusting. The gross language and pedophila in the books are sinful and the teachings in them are evil. You don’t want 6 year olds learning how to read from from a book about homosexual intercourse. That’s evil and sick. You can’t really make a comparison with all due respect. The United States was founded on Christ and it needs to go back to a Pro Christ era. Reject all this sick and evil woke crap. FYI, even the military is woke and left now. That’s why I’m not in.

    This E7 is clearly competent and knowledgeable. It is interesting that for on of him, several Rangers have dropped out and not made it to E7 for a variety of reasons beyond quitting. Probably at least one blew his knee out, probably two. At least one, probably two made a bad moral decision although Rangers have been too busy to get into as much trouble as they used to, yet boys will be boys. At least one, maybe two Rangers have had another military dream materialize while they hit a reenlistment zone. Like spaceforce or more likely SF selection or selection for another elite unit. My point is that it takes a combination of luck, to a great degree due to injury, and other factors which I’ve mentioned to survive in the Regiment for 12 years and beyond. Without a doubt it takes above all a dedicated operator. Well done him and I hope those who fell out on his track due to bad luck, have come to terms with it.

Every soldier can even communicate better and more comfortable with comm headsets and walkie talkies, no longer they need bulky radio setup we typically see on soldiers back in the day

    As much as I love all these insider videos, I know this is totally a publicity grab from the army. Anyone who’s been in within the past 10 years knows the army is having a massive retention problem. The lack of war/influx of rampant toxic leadership (to include all the way to the top) is having a major strain on this peace time hands tied military that seems to be lead by people who’ve never shot/been shot at by the enemy. I say this because in my upbringing, there’s no way in HECK the 75th let alone the us army would go this in depth into this unit. Back when I went in with option 40 (2013 for reference, really not that long ago, yet the war and rules of engagement were already changing drastically), there were these super old videos on the army channel that just showed some sort of training exercise the regiment was performing. That’s all the info we had. Insider is putting out better “recruiting” videos than the army. It’s nostalgic to people like me, yet showing all the cool things to the outsiders. I wouldn’t be surprised if there wasn’t some sort of agreement/payoff/something that’s allowing them to film all of this just for the inherent recruiting these videos will bring.

    Common misconception. The red lens does not reduce your signature. It actually increases it. Red light waves travel farther than other light waves. That’s why they are on obstacles such as radio towers. The main reason for the red light is to protect your night vision. It will not flush the rhodopsin from your eyes. They should really use the blue-green lights that are used in the cockpit of helicopters. They are not perceived by nvg’s and protect night vision as well. I used to go round and round with Sergeants Major when they told me to not use the blue-green filter on my flashlight in the field. This needs to be taught to leadership and end the long-time fallacy.

    If only most regular army infantry leaders would allow their guys to set up their kit so it is best for them or use their own plate carriers as long as they're a reputable brand along with following the "Big 5 Philosophy" of the Regiment. It's astonishing that some leaders I've met don't like any of the stuff SOF does/uses simply because they're own guys "aren't good enough to be allowed to use it" or they just think being lighter and faster, more mobile doesn't matter. It's sad that some leaders won't motivate their guys to want to be the best they can be and then some and actually be effective at their job. I've heard Ianfantry and (even my own) Fire support team leadership say that the regular infantry/FiST teams are better than SOF... as I watched most of my FiST barely know how to handle a weapon safely around other people. Oh, my section chief also told me that marksmanship isn't important at all... and yet we were attached to an Infantry Unit.

    Early in the video he spoke about the elastic pouches on the front of his kit below the mag pouches. That's similar to where I put my chemlights. Not necessarily right at the front, but in a similar type of pouch. You can also slide them into the molle webbing on your plate carrier. As a platoon sergeant, he would carry chemlights for potentially marking casualties, or hanging them out a window in a cleared room. I know they're supposed to be on and off the objective quickly, but if they did have a mass casualty situation (and you'll always get one in training haha, because they suck), he would need to help the medics organize a casualty collection area. For my unit, part of that is placing different colored chemlights next to different levels of trauma. Also, it seems low tech next to all his kit, but he would definitely have different pens or map markers as well, again maybe in those types of pouches. Like the comment above said, no matter how sophisticated the gear, you always need something to write with haha.
