PFC Bryant's Funeral

  • Park Hill Cemetery 1105 South Morris Avenue Bloomington, IL, 61701 United States (map)

Services for PFC Robert L. Bryant, Company B, 4th Ranger Bn, WWII will be interned 12 April 2025, at 12:30 at the Veteran’s section of Park Hill Cemetery, Bloomington, Illinois.

PFC Robert L. Bryant, who died as one of Darby’s Rangers — the original World War II unit that modern Army Rangers trace their origins to — will finally be laid to rest in April. PFC Robert L. Bryant was part of a four-man team that went missing in 1943 while searching for wounded comrades from 4th Ranger Battalion during heavy fighting in Italy.

Bryant’s remains were identified in the Sicily-Rome American Cemetery in Nettuna, a coastal Italian city outside Anzio.

We hope to conduct a Once an Eagle Ceremony, so please let Mike Hall, m.hall@threerangersfoundation.org, know if you can attend. Bring your beret. I'm not sure if there is a reception planned, but if not, we’ll find a place to get together.

RLTW!
Mike Hall
