FORT RILEY, Kansas  –   Watch as IACH Soldiers are pushed to their limits in the Soldier and NCO of the Quarter Competition held March 2026.

Narrated by the IACH Operations NCO, this feature highlights what it takes to represent IACH as the "Best of the Best."

To earn the title, competitors must prove their military bearing, demonstrate proficiency in medical and Soldier tasks, and maintain peak physical endurance. The competition fosters camaraderie while recognizing Soldiers and NCOs who embody the Army Values, uphold the Warrior Ethos, and outperform their peers.

This quarter's event disrupted the competitors' physical momentum with sudden cognitive tasks, proving that true readiness requires both a strong back and a sharp mind.
