Col. Danial Morgan's 'Corps of Rangers' were better known as which unit?

Colonel Daniel Morgan’s unit was built around precise marksmanship and light infantry tactics, using long rifles to harass and outshoot the enemy. This reputation led to the enduring nickname Morgan’s Riflemen, a designation that directly reflects who they were and how they fought. Their role as sharpshooters and skirmishers became famous in the Continental Army, notably contributing to tactical success at battles like Cowpens. The other names belong to eras or contexts that don’t fit this colonial rifle corps—Green Berets are a modern post-World War II force, and the remaining options aren’t historically linked to Morgan’s unit.
