CAMP ARIFJAN, Kuwait- This week Soldiers from Afghanistan and Kuwait compete to become the 1st Sustainment Command (Theater) Best Warrior. The Best Warrior competition is a five-day event that challenges every Soldier’s mental and physical limitations with a variety of contests.
The first day the Soldiers were literally put to the test, as they answered a variety of questions ranging from Army regulation and Sexual Harassment Assault & Response Prevention to vehicle preventive maintenance checks and services (PMCS).
After exercising their brains on day one, the second day opened up with Soldier’s taking an Army Physical Fitness Test, followed by a scorching hot Kuwait afternoon filled with Army Warrior Tasks (AWT). Each Soldier was tested on five separate AWT’s, and whether it was evaluating a casualty under fire, PMCS or reacting to a chemical agent by properly decontaminating themselves, each Soldier proved up to the challenge.
On Day three the competitors were transported north to Camp Buehring, Kuwait, for a long day of weapon qualification and land navigation. The 1st TSC and 143d Sustainment Command (Expeditionary) cadre were set up and ready to go as the warriors arrived and helped expedite the competitors through their challenges. The land navigation began in the afternoon following the qualification challenge, and it was perhaps the toughest of the week as shade was non-existent on a navigational course sprawled across open desert and few landmarks to guide them.
After a long day the sweat soaked Soldiers prepared themselves for a 12-mile ruck march early on day four. Each Soldier finished in under the three-hour time limit, and spirits were never higher as competitors who finished quickly dropped their ruck and hustled back to pick up their battle buddies who were farther behind. After a few hours rest, each Soldier prepared for the mystery event later that afternoon. Each Soldier and their sponsor pondered what the event would include. Could it be combatives? Swimming? In the end it was a drill and ceremony event, as the importance of drill and ceremony becomes center stage as the Army transitions to a garrison environment.
Friday will bring their final test, a formal board filled with sergeants major, and Saturday the 1st TSC will crown their new Best Warrior, who will represent the 1st TSC next month in the U.S. Army Central Best Warrior Competition here.

The Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress is a four-engined heavy bomber developed in the 1930s for the United States Army Air Corps (USAAC). Competing against Douglas and Martin for a contract to build 200 bombers, the Boeing entry (prototype Model 299/XB-17) outperformed both competitors and exceeded the air corps' performance specifications. Although Boeing lost the contract (to the Douglas B-18 Bolo) because the prototype crashed, the air corps ordered 13 more B-17s for further evaluation. From its introduction in 1938, the B-17 Flying Fortress evolved through numerous design advances, becoming the third-most produced bomber of all time, behind the four-engined Consolidated B-24 Liberator and the multirole, twin-engined Junkers Ju 88.
The B-17 was primarily employed by the USAAF in the daylight strategic bombing campaign of World War II against German industrial, military and civilian targets. The United States Eighth Air Force, based at many airfields in central, eastern and southern England, and the Fifteenth Air Force, based in Italy, complemented the RAF Bomber Command's night-time area bombing in the Combined Bomber Offensive to help secure air superiority over the cities, factories and battlefields of Western Europe in preparation for the invasion of France in 1944. The B-17 also participated to a lesser extent in the War in the Pacific, early in World War II, where it conducted raids against Japanese shipping and airfields.
From its prewar inception, the USAAC (by June 1941, the USAAF) promoted the aircraft as a strategic weapon; it was a relatively fast, high-flying, long-range bomber with heavy defensive armament at the expense of bombload. It developed a reputation for toughness based upon stories and photos of badly damaged B-17s safely returning to base. The B-17 dropped more bombs than any other U.S. aircraft in World War II. Of approximately 1.5 million tons of bombs dropped on Nazi Germany and its occupied territories by U.S. aircraft, over 640,000 tons were dropped from B-17s. In addition to its role as a bomber, the B-17 was also employed as a transport, antisubmarine aircraft, drone controller, and search-and-rescue aircraft.
As of October 2019, nine aircraft remain airworthy, though none of them were ever flown in combat. Dozens more are in storage or on static display. The oldest of these is a D-series flown in combat in the Pacific on the first day of World War II.
This Aircraft:
Built at Vega Burbank as B-17G. Sold in 1947 to Institut Geographique National in France. Later returned to United States. Wears livery of 42-38050 "Thunderbird."
