Is This the Hardest Physical Contest in the World? The Best Ranger Competition belies the idea that the Army is weak or “woke.”
First Lt. Gabrielle White drops from a cable she had to climb across on the final day of the grueling Best Ranger Competition at Fort Benning in Columbus, Georgia April 13, 2025. White was the first and only woman to compete for the Best Ranger title and her team made it through the entire three day competition.
