This November, Spc. Elijah Brady earned the prestigious Expert Field Medical Badge and was selected to compete in the U.S. Army’s European Best Medic Competition. His achievements highlight the warrior spirit that has long defined Native Americans in military service.
Brady’s family has a legacy of service. His grandfather was a U.S. Army infantryman during the Vietnam War. Two of his uncles followed, serving as mechanics—one in the Marine Corps and the other in the Army.
The 173rd Airborne Brigade serves as the U.S. Army's Contingency Response Force in Europe, providing rapidly deployable forces to U.S. European, African, and Central Command areas of responsibility. Forward deployed in Italy and Germany, the brigade routinely trains with NATO allies and partners to build relationships and strengthen the alliance.
