U.S. Army Soldiers from the 207th Military Intelligence Brigade, Theatre, 307th Military Intelligence Battalion, and 522nd Military Intelligence Battalion participated in Lightning Mangudai 25 at Caserma Ederle, Vicenza, Italy, March 25, 2025. The event challenged Soldiers through a three-phase crucible consisting of an expert physical fitness assessment, a confidence course, and a team-building exercise.
From sunrise to sunset, Soldiers tested their strength, endurance and decision-making while reinforcing the values of communication, adaptability and mission-focused leadership. Lightning Mangudai 25 honors the spirit of the Mongol scouts it’s named after—elite warriors known for their speed, deception and resilience—and continues to forge the next generation of mentally tough, physically ready intelligence professionals.
