    FORT MCCLELLAN, Ala. (Oct. 15, 2016) -- Sgt. 1st Class Joseph Redus, a platoon sergeant and unit readiness noncommissioned officer assigned to Bravo Company, 1st Battalion, 173rd Infantry Regiment, 62nd Troop Command, Alabama Army National Guard, fires at a target during the Adjutant General's Match at the Pelham Range complex, Oct. 15, 2016.

    Redus fires his M-16A2 rifle from select distances ranging between 500 yards to 25 yards from the target line in both sustained-fire and rapid-fire modes while prone, sitting, kneeling, standing, or moving on foot while quickly engaging targets within set time limits.

    The competition includes both the State Command Sergeant Major's Match and the Adjutant General's Match. The combined score totals that each shooter earns during the two-part event are tallied with the shooters finishing in the top 10 per cent for the overall competition qualifying for award of the U. S. Army Excellence-In-Competition Rifleman badge.

    The shooters finishing the matches with the top 20 overall scores become the "The Governor's Twenty" as the 2017 State Marksmanship Team of the Alabama Army National Guard and will compete against Army National Guard teams representing other states and territories of the United States.
