USAREUR-AF International Tank Challenge

U.S. Army Europe and Africa, along with our NATO and Partner Allies, annually host a Tank Challenge. This training event is designed to give participating nations a dynamic and productive environment in which to foster military partnerships, form Soldier-level relationships, and share tactics, techniques and procedures.

The European International Tank Challenge was formerly known as the Strong Europe Tank Challenge. Images, video and stories that are older will appear under that name further down the timeline.

Serve Where It Matters: Join the FCE Bahrain Team

U.S. Marine Corps Forces Central Command

May 1, 2025 | 1:02

Reserve Marines have the chance to serve at the forward edge of global operations. At the Marine Forward Coordination Element in Bahrain, Marines support United States Marine Corps Forces Central Command by enabling crisis response, coordinating real-world missions, and working alongside joint and allied partners across the United States Central Command area of responsibility. This is more than weekend drill — it's operational-level experience with federal tax-free pay, hazardous duty incentives, and leadership opportunities that translate both in and out of uniform. Marine Forces Central Command is calling on capable, committed Marines to serve forward and make their next move matter. (U.S. Marine Corps video by Mr. Ruben Cordero)
