 From Soldiers Radio and Television, this is the Army Today, a daily feature from around the globe. Fifteen soldiers from around the 21st Theater Systemic Command come together to compete for the title of best warrior, warrior leader, and best officer. Warriors take on more than 35 realistic tasks during an exhausting four-day competition. Army First Lieutenant Andrew D'Amelio is one of three competing for this year's category of best officer. D'Amelio shares his thoughts of how realistic the scenarios are during the 21st TSE's best warrior competition. It was extremely realistic, almost too realistic at times where you almost had to take a step back and realize what it was and keep your head straight on the path. With the order of events kept secret, the Warriors had to stay on their toes and adapt to each situation quickly. Soldiers went through a lot of struggles and conflicts as they were tested to their breaking points. Specialist Natalia Prudnokava, born in Belarus, tells us about her favorite event and how she remembers every striking detail. The combatant's portion was unexpected. It was actually a good part because where else are you going to get punched for real from level three certified combatant people and experience what is truly a real punch in the face means. So that was a great experience. The winners of the three categories are First Lieutenant Thomas Malekko, 18th Engineers, Staff Sergeant Devin Allred, also 18th Engineers, and Private First Class Richard Shepherd, 21st TSE Special Troops Battalion. For the 21st Theater Sustainment Command, I'm Army Sergeant Benjamin Bogan, Graffenbier, Germany. That's the Army Today from Soldiers Radio and Television.
