I remember reading something awhile back about some baseball players going to Ranger School to learn leadership, but I can't find anything about it now. Did something like this happen, or am I mistaken?

While I was an RI we had baseball team coaching staff come to Camp Merrill. We discussed resiliency and showed them some simple mountaineering stuff.
Also, the Boy Scouts do a high adventure camp on Camp Merrill. They sleep in the barracks, eat in the chow hall and hire RI's to treat them like Ranger and teach them mountaineering stuff. I did that 3 times it was pretty fun.

I was able to find this as well: https://benningnews.org/2016/10/20/auburn-baseball-team-builds-camaraderie-on-ranger-course/
I'm sure I had read about them going to Ranger School, and I was really under the impression that they attended the entire course, but maybe this is all it was.

We had a group of DEA Agents shadow my class in ‘91 through all the phases. They did a little training in the same AO and then headed back for hot chow and lots of rack time, haha
