U.S. Army 1st Lt. Caden Peters, 2nd Battalion, 12th Regiment, 1st Armored Brigade Combat Team, 1st Cavalry Division, gives a safety brief to multinational soldiers before the start of the 18.6-mile Norwegian Foot March at the Bemowo Piskie Training Area (BPTA), Poland, Dec. 21, 2024. Nearly 120 soldiers, representing the U.S., U.K., Poland and Romania, arrived in the early morning hours to check in and weigh their rucksacks. Each soldier is required to carry a minimum of 24 pounds, not including their water source. Participants were prescribed a time in which they must complete the march, based on their age group and gender. Completion time standards ranged from four and a half to six hours. Soldiers who finished within their allotted time earned the honor of wearing a badge they can place alongside their medals and decorations on their dress uniform. The march is designed to push participants to their limits, testing both their physical capabilities and mental fortitude. Events like this enhance the spirit of camaraderie within the Battle Group and improve overall physical and mental readiness. The 1st Cavalry Division’s mission is to strengthen partnerships with our NATO allies and regional security partners. This provides competent and ready forces to V Corps, America’s forward-deployed corps in Europe (U.S. Army photo by Spc. Trevor Wilson)
