On 200th anniversary, Texas Rangers have much to celebrate, much to do | Opinion
Next year, the Texas Rangers will celebrate 200 years of law enforcement.In 2023, the world-renowned Texas Rangers will mark their 200th anniversary of service to the great state of Texas. From its founding in 1823 until today with 166 women and men spread across 254 counties, Texas Rangers reflect the diversity, professionalism, and integrity you would hope to find in one of the world’s oldest — and finest — law enforcement organizations.
Creativity and adaptability are hallmarks of the Rangers, starting with the development of the Colt Walker pistol in the mid-1840s, an innovation that helped the United States win the Mexican-American War and affected the trajectories of both nations for decades to come. The Rangers were among the first law enforcement agencies to use aerial surveillance when, in 1922, they used a biplane to find camouflaged whiskey stills along the Trinity River.
