GallantFew Rangers
GallantFew Rangers’ (GFR) mission is to facilitate a successful transition for Army Ranger veterans from active military service to a civilian life filled with hope and purpose. RLTW!
Our mission is accomplished through our Ranger Functional Fitness programs and events; connecting them to fellow Rangers, educating them about resources available to Rangers & their families from various businesses and organizations, and ultimately empowering them to lead the way in their communities.
The Ranger’s return on investment to the U.S. Army is leadership. Soldiers deserve the best-trained leaders our Army has to offer. Those leaders are Rangers. GFR is the veteran-led extension of the Army’s investment. GFR sets the example for others to follow by building Rangers for Life.
PHALANX: Meet the Newest Initiative of the 75th Ranger Regiment
Our nation continues to rely heavily upon the 75th Ranger Regiment. We remain in a near-perpetual state of conflict that is ever increasing in complexity and our Rangers are prepared to meet this enduring conflict. As it meets each challenge, our Regiment continues to prove its relevance, and the demand for its capability increases. While the nature of conflict, adversary, or technology may change how we sustain our operational capability, one thing remains constant: our people are our greatest resource.
The PHALANX Program provides a framework for Ranger performance, qualifications, and sustainment by formalizing career progression, facilitating continued education, and providing resources to enhance human performance – both physically and mentally.
1. CAREER – Rangers progress along a MOS-specific RCAM (Ranger Career Advancement Model) that addresses Operational Experience, Ranger Qualifications, and Self-Development, serving to inform Rangers on what credentials make them most competitive for future service in the Regiment, and the Army.
2. EDUCATION – A Regimental Education Manager at the Regiment level and an Education Counselor at each Ranger Battalion provides education guidance and facilitates enrollment into tailored degree pathways, executive education, and vocational programs.
3. HUMAN PERFORMANCE – Periodic holistic health assessments, supplemented by tailored 360 Degree Leadership reviews, are incorporated prior to assuming Key Leadership positions in order to sustain overall wellness and provide tools for development. World-class, offsite, personalized care and performance enhancement opportunities are afforded to Rangers as they progress from mid-to senior-level leadership positions.

As of January 1, 2021, The Darby Project has been renamed GallantFew Rangers! We’re the same patriotic, all-American Ranger team you’ve come to know, but we’ve remodeled. Though black and gold are iconic in the Ranger community, nothing is more patriotic than red, white, and blue.
Why red, white, and blue?
- Our roots are in Dallas, Texas
- We serve all American veterans of any branch of service
- We are AMERICA’S VETERAN TEAM
- We’re all inclusive, just like our great nation
- We serve veterans in conjunction with the greatest corporate and Mission Support Partners – a true team effort
