During the week of 16-20 September 173rd Infantry Brigade Combat Team (Airborne) hosted Expert Infantry Badge testing. More than 650 Soldiers from the brigade and surrounding units participated in the event. Throughout the week the physical and mental fortitude of the Soldiers was put to the test. The expertise required to pass the events eliminated the majority of the candidates leaving only 79 Soldiers to receive the Expert Infantry Badge. Soldiers are training on the newly constructed Joint Multinational Training Center MOUT site in Dandolo, Italy. The facility resembles a small village or living compound, and is located in close proximity to important joint training areas presently used by both Italian and U.S. forces.
