4th Canadian Ranger Patrol Group

Misson

4^th Canadian Ranger Patrol Group will generate and employ an evolving lightly equipped and self-sufficient mobile force in support of Canadian Armed Forces domestic operations and training.

The unit generates and provides specialized support to other Canadian Armed Forces units, domestic operations, and communities in isolated, remote and coastal regions across Western Canada.

A Canadian Ranger Patrol can provide a number of capabilities to a community/region:

• Assist local officials with Ground Search and Rescues;
• Support officials during a natural disaster or emergencies;
• Conduct or support Canadian Armed Forces Domestic Operations;
• Provide a continued Canadian Armed Forces presence in a community; and
• Maintain Local Area Resource Report.

The Canadian Rangers is a singularly unique organization of the Canadian Army in which outdoors men and women can provide their existing abilities and experiences, combined with acquired military skills, to produce a much-needed layer in Canada’s defence. With an intimate knowledge of the land, our Canadian Rangers act as the eyes and ears of the Canadian Army in Canada’s remote locations and are guides, advisors, and teachers to the rest of the Canadian Armed Forces, while providing Ground Search and Rescue services where required. 4 CRPG is always looking for capable community members where our Patrols are located to join our ranks.
