A U.S. Army Soldier marks points on a map for the land navigation assessment during the Expert Infantryman, Expert Soldier, and Expert Field Medical Badge, also known as E3B, at Fort Bliss, Texas, Sept. 17, 2024. More than 900 Fort Bliss Soldiers took part in the weeklong E3B event held from September 16-20, 2024. E3B puts Soldiers through a series of rigorous and demanding events and tasks such as the Expert Physical Fitness Assessment, land navigation, individual weapons familiarization lanes, medical tasks, patrol lanes, and the completion of a 12-mile road march in three hours or less to earn the coveted badges.
Known as the home of "America's Tank Division", Fort Bliss is one of the U.S. Army's premier strategic platforms. Events like the E3B strive to increase Soldiers' individual and collective readiness increasing overall proficiency and lethality.
