South Carolina National Guard team claims the Overall Champion Team title at the 2026 U.S. Army Small Arms Championships at Fort Benning, Georgia March 8-14. Team members are: Sgt. Jonathan Vaughn, Staff Sgt. John Jordan, Staff Sgt. Kevin Pritchett (team captain), and Maj. Samuel Freeman.
The annual, live-fire training event, which is hosted by the U.S. Army Marksmanship Unit, tests soldiers marksmanship skills in 13 separate rifle, pistol and multigun matches, that includes firing more than 500 rounds. The competition, which is often referred to as ‘All Army’, is open to active-duty, Reserve, National Guard and the Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (ROTC) cadets. The goal is to raise the standards of marksmanship and increase lethality across the entire force.
