Army Rangers vs Navy SEALs: Who would win in a one-on-one or squad-based fight?

[HPBrowningMK3]

I'd honestly *hate* to see such two elite forces matched against each other because it would be an almost assured self destruction. There are many variables in play,true,l but if I was betting my money, I'd bet it on the Rangers in most situations.

I lost some, but not all, admiration for Rangers when me and seven other BOOT Marines threw hooks with I don't know, around 25 of the beret'ed beauties in the beer gardens next to our barracks. It was a clean fight at least but they left me mildly disappointed. They thought of us as merely young students and the trouble we got into, which was substantial, was worth the competition.

This happened.

Ft. Lost in the Woods, MO 1997. It actually started at the Waffle House the weekend before. The beer garden incident ended with office hours for us. We ended up drinking with the same doggies we fought with a few weeks later at the post bowling alley. They were alright, just expected more ferocity that's all. But yes, this happened.

There's quite a bit of Marine Corps hate too, what's up with that?

As someone who just ETS'ed from active duty Army, and being stationed at the Center of the Universe (Fort Bragg, NC for you dirty legs) this thread makes me shake my head.

The fact that this thread has gone on for 5 pages makes me very very sad, and the fact that it exists at all makes more than a little annoyed.

There will always be these kinds of silly, immature questions, and we, as senior personnel, or veterans, need to have the where-with-all to sigh, collectively roll our eyes, pat the little FNG who asked it lovingly on the head and tell him to ask it again after he has a little more dirt on his boots. He won't, and we shouldn't encourage new, or aspiring soldiers to act like douchebags.

Like I said, I was stupid for making this thread, and I wish it was deleted already!

Where's the answer that says "I know this is a dumb question because I'm not a boot."?
