 The goal for the Best Warrior Competition is to select the best candidate from the state of Georgia to go forward and represent in Region 3 and potentially the nationals. The purpose behind the Basic Warrior Task and Drills is just the basic skills that a soldier needs. We have weapons systems, talking on radios or common equipment, medical events and call for fire. It's just the basic soldier skills that soldiers need in combat to survive. Competing here is more than just earning the title of Best Warrior. It's also an application for the senior enlisted leaders to see who the next senior leaders will be. Just doing skill level 1 things is getting down to the core of what being a soldier is. It's always a breath of fresh air. From a soldier perspective, it gives some of our soldiers a chance to train in events and see different training events and meet different people that they normally wouldn't get an opportunity to.
