    U.S. Army Staff Sgt. Che Blake, a combat engineer with Headquarters and Headquarters Battalion, 28th Infantry Division, poses for a portrait at the start of the Pennsylvania Army National Guard’s Best Warrior Competition at Fort Indiantown Gap, Pennsylvania, April 8, 2026. "I am looking forward to the ruck march," he said. "I joined the Pennsylvania Army National Guard at 17 years old to have a part time job. It taught me lots of tangible skills and gave me my U.S. citizenship." Competitors are evaluated on their individual ability to adapt and overcome challenging scenarios and battle-focused events, which tests their technical and tactical abilities under stress and extreme fatigue.
