“Rangers—Christmas is upon us. During the Christmas Season, many churches and even some individual families celebrate with an Advent wreath. Advent is a 4-week season dedicated to reflective preparation for the arrival, or "advent" of Jesus Christ's Nativity at Christmas. During this important event on the church calendar, each week of Advent focuses on a different theme - hope, peace, joy, and love…”

The Wounded Warrior Project VA Benefits team worked with our Rangers at the GallantFew Ranger Outreach Center. WWP continues to assist Rangers in tackling challenges, developing new skills, and moving confidently into the next chapter of their lives, with a focus on long-term health, stability, and success. We always suggest signing up with WWP as one of the first steps to transitioning!

The 2024 Virtual Mog Mile was an incredible success, marking the 31st anniversary of Operation Gothic Serpent.

The TRF team spoke to 74 Rangers at the 2/75 Ranger for Life Symposium! It was great to see so many Rangers in attendance. Thank you Wounded Warrior Project for joining and teaching us the benefits you provide to veterans. The Ranger for Life Program, powered by WWP, provides personalized transition assistance to excel in your post-military life.

This summer we proudly awarded four TRF Legacy scholarships to deserving children of Ranger veterans. This achievement was made possible through our collaboration with the Rangers Scholarship Fund. Together, we remain dedicated to creating opportunities for the next generation of Rangers and their families as they strive to achieve their educational goals. A heartfelt thank you to everyone who played a role in making this possible!

We are excited to announce the launch of our new Ranger for Life webinar series, designed to provide invaluable information and resources to all current and former Rangers and their spouses. These webinars are aligned with the content presented at our Ranger for Life Symposiums.

We are deeply thankful for the unwavering support of our partners and the dedication of our volunteers, which made yet another unforgettable Gold Star trip to Alaska possible. This month our Gold Star family members and Ranger buddies traveled from across the country to enjoy a week filled with meaningful experiences, including visits to Seward, Headquarters 11th Airborne Division, and a touching climb up Gold Star Peak to honor their fallen Rangers.

This month, we reunited to honor our Gold Star Families, socialize, golf, and support the mission of the Three Rangers Foundation. Thank you to our 144 golfers, 16 volunteers, and dedicated sponsors and donors for making our 7th Annual Golf Tournament a success! Your contributions not only helped us organize a fantastic tournament but also made a positive impact on our "why".

Thank you to all those who attended our meet ups this month in Florida, Georgia, DC, and Colorado!

We have three Mentor Meet-Ups coming up. If you are not a mentor yet, please still stop by to learn more. The purpose of these events is to build camaraderie and expand the network. Please feel free to share with your Ranger buddies.

This month, TRF and Young County Warrior Ranch joined forces to host a poignant event, welcoming Ms. Diane Hammond and Mr. Sandrino Plutino, the Gold Star parents of Ranger Sergeant Alessandro Plutino from the 1st Ranger Battalion. SGT Plutino was Killed in Action on August 8, 2011, in Paktya, Afghanistan, during a firefight with enemies of the US.

We held two Ranger for Life Retirement Symposiums. TRF Mentors and advocates covered a range of topics such as financial readiness, education, VA benefits, entrepreneurship, and spouse tips.

We extend our deepest gratitude to everyone who joined us in honoring the legacy of the last Merrill’s Marauder, Russell "Huck" Hamler, during his interment on January 19, 2024, at the National Cemetery of The Alleghenies.
