U.S. Army Staff Sgt. Colton Wilson, a drill sergeant assigned to the Sustainment Center of Excellence, helps a Soldier adjust her M4 carbine during the U.S. Army Drill Sergeant of the Year competition, a portion of which tests candidates on properly coaching a Soldier to group and zero their weapon at Fort Jackson, S.C., Sept. 15, 2026. This year, competitors are graded not only on their ability to execute Warrior Tasks and Battle Drills, but also on their ability to train the Army's newest Soldiers. (U.S. Army photo by 2nd Lt.
