U.S. Army squad assigned to 1st Infantry Division moves a casualty to the ambulance exchange point during the U.S. Army Europe and Africa Best Squad Competition at Grafenwoehr Training Area, Germany, Aug. 4, 2026. The medical lane reinforces lethal, ready, and resilient squads by replicating the chaos of combat, requiring Soldiers to treat injuries, preserve fighting strength, and execute life saving tasks that directly support the Army’s train to fight mission.
Teams from across U.S. Army Europe and Africa will compete at Grafenwoehr through Aug. 6, 2026, for the title of Best Squad. The competition measures squad effectiveness, communication and cohesion, along with each Soldier’s technical and tactical proficiency, endurance and fortitude. Winners will advance to represent U.S. Army Europe and Africa at the Army Best Squad Competition, where one noncommissioned officer and one junior Soldier from the top squad will earn the titles of the Army’s Best NCO and Best Soldier of the Year.
