I was an investigator with the military for many years, during this time I made many connections and I have people who can confirm special forces or navy seal service members. I do not have a connection that can confirm people who give claims of being a Ranger. Can anyone assist me with confirming a couple of names?

You can request a tab check from Ranger School. Give them as much information as possible, preferably graduation date if possible. Usually you can just ask guys what class they graduated.

Ranger School isn’t the only way to become Ranger…Combat Ranger Qualification shows on your DD214

I worked with a Vietnam Vet who went to ranger school in Vietnam, he said you can ask a ranger their class number, if they don't know it, they weren't there. His words not mine.

As I don't know the class sequencing number for the Ranger course, I will say yes.

Ask them what they had for breakfast in the Mountain phase.

That's a totally legit question. Those that went through the course never forget about the blueberry pancakes.
