Robert Roger's

Company of Rangers

In 1755, Capt. Robert Rogers of Blanchards  N.H Regiment was called upon to organize a Ranger Co. Rogers Rangers were capable woodsmen ~ able to meet the French and Indians on their own terms.  The Rangers were so successful that in the Spring of 1756, Rogers was called upon to organize a second Co. Unlike the French and English, who stopped fighting during the winter, Rogers Ranges spent the winter attacking the French.  These tactics made the Rangers a remarkable fighting force.  In a sense, they were the first Green Berets.
