    U.S. Soldiers assigned to 1st Armored Division wrestle for submission of the opponent during the Torch Week combatives tournament inside Joshua W. Soto Physical Fitness Center at Fort Bliss, Texas, March 2, 2026. Friendly competition, such as combatives, increases esprit de corps, camaraderie, and morale, which helps Soldiers accomplish missions around the world.
    The 1st Armored Division’s Torch Week is an annual event commemorating the division’s role in the World War II invasion of North Africa in 1942, known as OPERATION TORCH. Iron Soldiers celebrate the division’s history and honor the everlasting legacy of the Iron Soldiers that came before them through a week-long celebration with competitions and morale-boosting events that demonstrate physical fitness, promote camaraderie, and foster a climate of winning throughout the organization.
