The backbone of the US Army is our Noncommissioned Officer Corps.  From my recent assignment in the Pacific Theater, I can tell you that our Army’s NCO’s professionalism and technical expertise is the envy of our allies around the world.  They create a force multiplier that does not exist elsewhere.  How lucky we are to be in the 108th Training Command where our business is all about the NCO: recruiting, retention, training, and developing the world-famous Army Drill Sergeant.

FORT MCCOY, Wis.— After a week of grueling competition that included firing ranges, 20 miles of foot marching, obstacle courses, and simulated events, the U.S. Army Reserve announced the two winners of the 2020 U.S. Army Reserve Best Warrior Competition during its awards luncheon at Fort McCoy, Wisconsin, Sept. 10.

Greetings 108th Family,

Over the past couple of months the 108th Inspector General office (IGO) has distributed several informational updates on relevant topics in our ‘Did You Know’ series. 

The 95th Training Division has a long and rich history. We are most renowned for our role in World War II, where we gained our nickname the “Iron Men of Metz.” Our Iron Men fought hard and conquered massive German resistance to capture the fortress city of Metz as part of the Allied push into Germany in 1944. It is this rich history and grit that gives our Soldiers today, in this Division, the honor and pride to serve and follow in the footsteps of the Iron Men who fought so hard before us.
