U.S. Army Staff Sgt. Zackery Garcia (left), a civil affairs noncommissioned officer assigned to the 415th Civil Affairs Battalion, supporting 1st Cavalry Division, oversees a group of Lithuanian cadets inspecting U.S. Army body armor before properly dawning the gear at the land navigation station in the Padauguva Forest near Vilkija, Lithuania, June 21, 2024. The land navigation event honored the Forest Brothers, a group of partisans who fought Soviet insurgents from 1944 to 1953 during the occupation of the Baltic States. The 1st Cavalry Division’s mission is to engage in multinational training and exercises across the continent, strengthening interoperability with NATO allies and regional security partners, which provides competent and ready forces to V Corps, America’s forward-deployed corps in Europe.
