Recent examples of this show the power they have where they open and close the same section of beach in one day because of a tern.

So.... next time your out there on the CCNS and see a royal blue metallic dodge Dakota pickup going up and down the beach, beware something is gonna give.

Who was talking about the rank and file Rangers?

As Karl said, NPS policy dates back to the early 70s.

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.
