Help w/Ranger Flag, please
Hello all, A lady at work had a son KIA'd in 2003. Today she mentioned that she's been looking for a flag from her son's old unit to hang under her American flag. I know that he was a Ranger, and she says that he was in A Co. of the 3rd Bn from Ft. Benning. Being an AF vet, I know little about Army Command Structure. I found this flag online, is it the right one? I don't know if there is only one 3rd Bn of Rangers, and don't want to get her the wrong flag. Oh, I can't paste a picture of it here. It has a banner that reads 3d - Ranger - Bn, with a shield underneath, divided in 4 parts with what looks like a sun, lightning bolt, and star. TIA for any help here. I'd like to honor this guy correctly. |

Re: Help w/Ranger Flag, please
That's the DUI you're talking about. Unit flag for the 3rd Bat would be a Blue pennant bearing white crossed rifles with a 3 on top and a 75 on the bottom.
Post a link to the flag you've seen on-line. I'd like to see it. |

Tks. Do you know of any way to get the pennant you mentioned for this person? |

What is the size? Remember it has to be smaller than the US flag (if its flown at the same time) and it would look funny if it was dinky.

Re: Help w/Ranger Flag, please
That flag is fine and so is the site. (owned by Rangers) The unit guidon pennants I mentioned are very hard to find and expensive (+$100.00 last time I saw one.) You will have to contact a flag company and ask them if they can make you one (ie call them as most do not list them on their websites).
www.usaflags.com www.condorflags.com I've done buisness with both of the above in the past and had good service from them. |
