U.S. Army Staff Sgt. Jessica Cordera, assigned to 4th Financial Management Support Unit, Special Troops Battalion, 1st Armored Division Support Brigade, calls in a 9-line MEDEVAC while she is evaluated on the medical lanes during the Expert Infantryman Badge/Expert Soldier Badge (EIB/ESB) competition March 28 at Fort Bliss, Texas. Cordera, a native of Fort Lauderdale, Fla., earned the ESB on her third attempt. The 1st Brigade Combat Team hosted the EIB/ESB competition as more than 100 Soldiers based at Fort Bliss tried to earn the coveted skills badges in a tough, realistic, and mission focused setting. The EIB/ESB included a series of rigorous and demanding events such as the Expert Physical Fitness Assessment, day and night land navigation, individual weapons qualification and familiarization, medical lanes, patrol lanes, and the completion of a 12-mile road march in three hours or less.
