Another title. No clues as to what the item is. Possibly the Ranger in the title is a play on words about some kind of storage unit. Thoughts?

Straightening up [your stuff] for rovers: Organizer for Rovers
nomade in French everyday speech are NOT nomads...it's the roving one does when young ..as in being a mover..getting around to see/do everything in a city, country...to be a rover
this means you can straighten up [clear up, organize your personal junk] that you pick up as you rove around town, or country or internationally
