    U.S. Army Staff Sgt. Jessica Cordero, assigned to the 4th Financial Management Support Unit, Special Troops Battalion, 1st Armored Division Support Brigade, conducts an M4 functions check during the Expert Infantryman Badge/Expert Soldier Badge (EIB/ESB) competition at Fort Bliss, Texas, March 28. Cordero, who serves as a financial management technician, said it was a hard road on her journey to earn the ESB as the competition was both physically and mentally challenging. The 1st Brigade Combat Team "Ready First", 1st Armored Division, hosted the EIB/ESB competition from March 27 through March 31. The competition 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.
