Soldiers stand in formation during the 1st Battalion, 46th Infantry Regiment, 194th Armored Brigade, Basic Combat Training Graduation Ceremony on the Inouye Parade Field at the National Infantry Museum in Columbus, Ga., June 19, 2019. The parade field, which was built in 2009, is sprinkled with soil from the battlegrounds of Yorktown, Va., Antietam at Sharpsburg, Md., Soissons and Normandy, France, Corregidor Island, Philippines, Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan. Now, every infantryman who graduates from Fort Benning, Ga., receives the honor of walking across the hallowed ground that heroes before them fought on during every major American conflict. Educators from Louisiana, Mississippi and Tennessee attended the ceremony during the U.S. Army, Baton Rouge Recruiting Battalion Education Tour at the Maneuver Center of Excellence in Fort Benning, Ga., from June 19 to June 21, 2019.
