Camp Rudder is the final stage of the nine-week course that starts at Fort Benning, Ga., and continues in the mountains of northern Georgia. After parachuting into Camp Rudder, the students spend 18 days learning jungle tactics, including stream crossings. The Ranger course is designed to further develop military leaders who are physically and mentally tough and self-disciplined. It challenges them to think, act and react effectively in stress approaching that found in combat.
22 Students have died while in training at Camp Rudder, including four who died in a 1955 training accident and another four who died of exposure during cold-weather flooding in February 1995.
