U.S. Army Soldiers assigned to the South Carolina National Guard and military personnel from the armies of Germany and Colombia take part in the swimming portion of the German Armed Forces Proficiency Badge (GAFPB) at the University of South Carolina Natatorium, Columbia, South Carolina, March 3, 2026. The BWC is a multi-day event promoting excellence and resilience in the National Guard. Typically, National Guard competitors are selected at the battalion level to compete for the brigade title. The successive phase is the state BWC, followed by regionals and nationals. All phases are organized following a standardized BWC event template. The South Carolina phase of the 2026 BWC is held on March 2-6. Throughout the event, all participants are challenged, both mentally and physically, in critical areas of emphasis encompassing individual combat skills and doctrinal knowledge. The core events of the BWC are a ruck march, weapons use and maintenance, combat medical care, marksmanship, and land navigation. (U.S. Army National Guard photo by Sgt. Duran Jones)
