Not sure why Beachhead has the Red Beret. I assume as a shout out to his Airborne training, as the 82 were the ones who wore thoses. But Beachhead has the 75th patch on his arm.
Tunnel-Rat doesn't exclusively state he's part of the Rangers, but one can infer hes was since he completed Ranger School and went to Grenada in almost the same sentence on his filecard. The only army units to go to Grenada were the Rangers and the 82 Airborne as part of the Quick Reaction Force.
So those three I would say yes they were Part of the 75th.
Others who were 75th:
Starduster
Sneak-Peek
Skydive
Crazylegs
Freefall
Probably Snake-Eyes too.
Beachhead and Rampage would also be former 75th Rangers as well since Rampage's filecard states him and Beachhead served together in the Rangers. Otherwise Beachhead's filecards make it ambiguous whether he was Ranger-qualifed or served with the 75th (if memory serves me right that is).
