Who wrote the Ranger Creed?

The Ranger Creed is a modern expression of the Ranger Ethos, created to guide and unify soldiers serving as Rangers. It is widely attributed to Neal R. Gentry, a Ranger who authored and helped popularize the creed in the late 20th century, and his name appears in many Ranger histories and training materials as the author. The other names come from different eras or are not linked to the creed’s creation—the Revolutionary War figure Col. Daniel Morgan and the unit Morgan’s Riflemen are historical references far removed from the modern Ranger Creed, and Gary Carpenter isn’t recognized as the creed’s author in standard Ranger lore. So the attribution to Neal R. Gentry fits the historical context and the creed’s modern origin.
