US Army Europe Best Warrior Logo

 
Allied Spirit is a U.S. Army exercise for multinational partners, conducted at 7th Army Training Command training areas at Grafenwoehr and Hohenfels, Germany.
 
Unlike other USAREUR-AF exercises, which feature U.S. brigade combat teams in a lead role augmented by Allies and partners, Allied Spirit places an Allied unit as the main training audience. While U.S.-led, this exercise will develop and enhance NATO and key partner interoperability and readiness across specified warfighting functions.

Cadets Maximilian Rzymski from Hofstra University, Jacob True from the Rochester Institute of Technology, and Natan Blumberg from Rutgers University share their experiences and challenges during the annual Ranger Challenge competition for the Second Freedom Brigade. Cadets from over 48 universities across the Northeast converged at Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst, New Jersey, October 18-20, 2024, to demonstrate their physical fitness and technical expertise in more than ten graded and timed events. This year's theme, "Rigor," required cadets to confront both the physical and mental challenges presented by the events. The top two teams from this competition will advance to the Sandhurst Competition, scheduled for Spring 2025 at West Point, New York.
