Drifter 167 Posted November 23, 2017 The 1st Ranger Battalion is not new to the ArmA scene. The 1st Ranger Battalion has been around since late 2013 and has been in the community for 3 years until switching the unit to the 509th PIR. The 1stRB has been revived from the original founder. The 1stRB strives to be a Milsim environment for players to enjoy and have a great Milsim experience. The 1stRB provides weekend operations and training on Friday's and Saturday's. Friday nights being training and Saturday nights being private unit operations which is organized and executed like real world operations. The 1st Ranger Battalion is not a place for every one though, we like members to maintain a mature attitude and follow unit SOP's when in unit events. The 1stRB also enforces discipline upon its members, to keep the organization in top notch condition and keep a good public image. The 1st Ranger Battalion will be operating just like the real Ranger Battalion in the U.S Army. We will be conducting different raids, patrols, assaults and even some defense objectives. The objectives can vary from High Value Target take downs, hostage rescue, intel gathering, capture and more. Our missions will be ran as a campaign and the outcome of each mission will vary on how we do. Most of our missions will be using an addon called ALiVE, which allows a dynamic mission to be played and progress to be saved, we do not use Zeus or MCC in our missions against our own troops, so don't expect any sort of heavy PvP. The 1st Ranger Battalion provides multiple training courses to help our members gain the knowledge and be able to coordinate and work with each other in the field. These training courses will provide basic knowledge for the unit when operating in the field. It is mandatory for every member to go through the necessary training depending on the MOS they have chose. The 1st Ranger Battalion operates on Friday's for training and Saturday's for deployments/operations. Each official unit event will be based of U.S Pacific Standard Time. Every official event will be scheduled at 4pm PST.

Drifter 167 Posted December 22, 2017 Unit Update: Cadet program opened. The 1st Ranger Battalion cadet program will allow younger members from ages 14 and 15 to enlist with the unit. Being part of the cadet program means that those members will only be able to reach certain ranks and certain abilities until they have met the age of 16. Cadets can only enlist as infantry as of now, however in infantry they may choose from infantry roles, Rifleman, Grenadier, Automatic Rifleman, they may also choose from Sappers (Combat Engineers) or Medics. Cadets will only be able to make it to Private First Class (PFC), which is a member that has completed all mandatory training, Basic Combat Training and Advanced Combat Training. Cadets will be under close watch due to age and possible maturity levels. Reserves program opened. The 1st Ranger Battalion reserves has opened and will allow members who cannot fully attend official unit events on Friday's and Saturday's to still be part of this unit and attend events when they can, however, every reserve member must check in at least once every month, if check ins are not made, the member maybe discharged from the unit.
