Ranger B grew up in our nation’s capital, has lived all over our great country, and now resides in Atlanta, Georgia, where he helps business owners become better leaders. He’s a father of four, and draws particular inspiration for his role as Cadre from his two year old, whose favorite pastime already is rucking – or, what he calls “Outside March!"

Ranger Kurth is a native Texan and calls Houston home, where he manages a sports bar downtown. Being a full time night crawler, single & no kids, allows him plenty of time to be creative with his GORUCK event planning. So expect some old school Ranger Rucking.
