BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (WIAT) — The Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office is investigating after hikers discovered human remains along a creek bank near the Cahaba River Saturday afternoon.

According to Deputy Randy Christian, the hikers were in the wooded area behind the Cahaba Forest Cove neighborhood in southern Jefferson County when they found the remains. They exited the woods and called the Sheriff’s Office.

Christian says the remains are so badly decomposed that is was not possible to determine race or gender at the scene.

There is an image of a "I Fear No Evil, Ranger Up" Sweatshirt with orange letters at this link posted in January of 2011: http://fighttrends.com/tag/ranger-up/

That may give a clue as to the year if it matches the one found.

Picture in news shows him wearing a grey sweatshirt. Namus has a picture of him wearing a button-up dress shirt. His height is within the range.
