Adam Ritter, assigned to 21st Ordnance Company – Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD), 71st Ordnance Group, peer down the road as they wait for fellow competitors to complete a 12-mile ruck march during the fifth annual Department of the Army level explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) Team of the Year competition, Sept. 14 at Fort A.P. Hill, Va. The week-long competition is part of a new initiative of the U.S. Army Ordnance Corps, called the U.S. Army Ordnance Crucible, which combines the results of this competition with two other competitions that were held at Fort Pickett. Those competitions were on ammunition transfer holding points (ATHP) and combat repair teams (CRT). The three unique competitions will provide an opportunity for senior leaders to assess ammunition, maintenance and EOD professionals across the institutional Army, operational force and individual leader development domains.
