    Best Tactical Medic team members must treat and sustain their patients while other team members complete the obstacles during 1st Armored Division's Torch Week, a celebration of 1st Armored Division's great legacy.
    Nearly 100 Iron Soldiers from across 1st Armored Division competed for the title of Best Medic August 21-22 as part of Torch Week, a week-long celebration of the great legacy of the 1st Armored Division, honoring the Iron Soldiers of this historic division—past and present. Over the course of two days, 2- and 5- man teams faced a slew of challenges designed to promote unit cohesion and enhance esprit de corps, such as an Obstacle Course, a WWII-era fitness test, and even a swim test-- all while caring for and traveling on foot in and around Fort Bliss with a 175-pound simulated casualty, known as 'Rescue Randy'.
