Servicemembers competed in the 2018 German Armed Forces Proficiency Badge event at Schofield Barracks in Hawaii, April 30 – May 4, 2018, hosted by the Regional Health Command - Pacific. The GAFPB (German: Abzeichen für Leistungen im Truppendienst) is a decoration of the German Armed Forces, authorized for wear by the U.S.military, and awarded to Soldiers of all ranks. The GAFPB is one of the few approved foreign awards, and it is one of the most sought-after awards to achieve. Competitors face four events over the course of three days – a swim, a basic fitness test, a pistol qualification, and a ruck march - to earn gold, silver or bronze badges. The competition was open to all eligible Soldiers from across the Pacific region.
