This manual draws from bloody lessons learned from two centuries of special operations combat.
From the US Department of War, the Skills, Tactics, and Traits of the Most Highly Skilled Soldiers in the World—Army Rangers.
This handbook offers the techniques and tactics that make U.S. Army Rangers the best soldiers in the world. Now, in this recently 2025 revised edition of the U.S. Army Ranger Handbook, you can get the latest info on everything from understanding the basics of Army operations and tactics to discovering what makes a soldier with good leadership qualities and character. Although primarily written for Rangers and other light infantry units, it serves as a handy reference for all military units, covering how infantry squad- and platoon-sized elements conduct combat operations in varied terrains.
This book is the ultimate resource for anyone who wants to know how Rangers think and function.
This book is a “Mini” (smaller than half the size of a piece of paper).
A popular size to carry anywhere (briefcase, large pocket, purse) but the print is large enough for easy reading. The binding is with coil, allowing easy flipping of pages without jamming.
The color covers are laminated for weather protection with black and white inside printing.
We also have A BIG size version on this website (a little bigger size book with coils on the side of the book).
