Odierno Best Redleg Competition 2024. He and his squad were crowned the Best Redlegs for their MOS on the M109 Paladin. They went through a week of grueling tasks, including the Army Combat Fitness Test, Peden Confidence Obstacle Course, ESB lanes, an 11.5-mile ruck, night infiltration and more.

Testing focused on Field Artillery fundamentals in a representative tactical scenario that promotes technical competence, professionalism and brilliance in the basics.
