Staff Sgt. Jordan Lacy, a combat medic specialist assigned to the 4th Security Force Assistance Brigade, makes his way down an obstacle during an Army Best Medic physical fitness challenge at Joint Base Lewis-McChord, Washington, Sept. 25. The challenge incorporated elements of the new Army Combat Fitness Test, as well as an obstacle course competitors had to navigate as a team.
Twenty-eight two-Soldier teams from around the world traveled to Washington state to compete in the finals to be named the Army’s Best Medic. The competition is a 72-hour test of the teams’ physical and mental skills in areas of physical fitness, tactical marksmanship, leadership, warrior skills and land navigation. Competitors must be agile, adaptive leaders who demonstrate a comprehensive knowledge of medical, technical and tactical proficiencies through a series of hands-on tasks in a simulated operational environment.
