I am asked quite often (including here) to explain the difference between Rangers and Green Berets. This is the best explanation I've seen. It was written by a career Ranger and just sent to me.

The difference between Green Berets and Rangers

"I'll tell you what used to piss me off about Special Forces. We
would deploy to some third-world hole in the wall country on a
classified mission. We would ruck for days over mountains and
through jungles to reach a village populated by "stone-aged
throw-backs to evolution", and when we got there, there would be a
"Green Beret-wearing SOB", sitting there drinking hot coffee and
reading that morning's edition of the Fayetteville Observer Times."
