Have you ever known a Special Forces-qualified Ranger?

I mean someone who has earned the Special Forces Tab, currently serving in the 75th Ranger Regiment.
I've seen two or three Long Tabbers in the 82nd, and I saw one going through RASP 2 (I think a PA) but I don't think he made it. There were plaques on the wall of the SURT barracks recording that Green Berets sometimes went through the 75th pre-Ranger School course.
And of course, Rangers fairly often go from the 75th to become Green Berets.
I also know ODA 41 (Ranger) of the 46th Special Forces Company trained Thai Rangers: the only unit ever designated both Special Forces and Ranger!
But I'm wondering if anyone has worn the Long Tab above the Scroll. Have you seen it?

The CO for one of the SF Groups in Europe had accomplished Borge, serving in both. I will say his body had taken a beating, but he was still the solemn professional you would imagine. Humble Warrior, in this case I would say Hero, I don’t fling that word around, but he was. He is too humble for me to release his name.

It was seldom seen in the old days, but since SF became a branch, you don't see it much anymore.
