U.S. Army Rangers and competitors from across the Department of Defense prepare to begin the 2026 David E. Grange Jr. Best Ranger Competition during the opening ceremony at Camp Rogers, Fort Benning, Georgia, April 10, 2026. This year marks the 42nd anniversary of the grueling 60-plus hour competition, which tests the physical endurance, mental toughness, and technical proficiency of the military's most elite two-man teams. The annual event, hosted by the Airborne and Ranger Training Brigade, serves as the ultimate benchmark for Ranger tactical lethality and grit.
