    The Idaho Army National Guard hosted its Best Warrior Competition on Sept. 14-17, 2023, at Gowen Field and at the Orchard Combat Training Center near Boise, Idaho. Sgt. Matthew Musser was selected as NCO of the Year and Spc. Bryson Carter was selected as Soldier of the Year and will move on to compete in the Regional Best Warrior Competition in the spring of 2024 for the chance to move further to the national level of the Army National Guard’s Best Warrior Competition later next year. For four days, 15 Idaho National Guard Soldiers competed for the title of Best Warrior by participating in multiple intensified tests with little sleep and high stress that challenged candidates both physically and mentally while evaluating their ability to shoot, move, communicate and survive.

    Participants from the NCO category were Staff Sgt. Lauren Cox, Sgt. Jacob Davidson, Sgt. Lucas Fekete, Staff Sgt. Matthew Garcia-Newman, Sgt. Zacharis Hallett, Sgt. Philip Mohlke, Sgt. Matthew Musser and Sgt. Isaac Preston.

    Participants from the Soldier category were Spc. Duncan Allen, Spc. Bryson Carter, Spc. Christopher Debartolo, Spc. Trevor Gunter, Private 1st Class Cooper Hayes, Spc. Braxton Mason and Private 1st Class Fabian Orozco.
