    Capt. Ian Brambs, an alpine instructor at the Mountain Training Group, 10th Mountain Division, participated in the Ninety-Pound Rucksack Challenge at Ski Cooper near Leadville, Colorado, on Feb. 18, 2024. The event commemorates the Division's night-time assault on Riva Ridge in northern Italy, a pivotal moment during World War II that contributed to the Allies' victory in Europe. Organized on the anniversary of this significant event, the uphill ski challenge honors the Division's legacy and its enduring impact on military history and outdoor recreation. (Disclaimer: Capt. Brambs’s participation is in his personal capacity and not as part of his official duties.) (U.S. Army photo by Sgt. Jaidon Novinska)
