They fought in Afghanistan for a while until they were transferred back to the [[United States]] to stop a [[Russian]] invasion. The Rangers' campaign is lived first through the eyes of [[Joseph Allen]] (for the levels "[[S.S.D.D.]]" and "[[Team Player]]") and then [[James Ramirez]] for the rest of the US missions. Both are members of 1st Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment, and are squad-mates with key characters [[Foley (Modern Warfare)|Sgt. Foley]] and [[Dunn|Cpl.
