Our cadets competed and finished in 7th place out of 48 teams from U.S. and international service academies and Army ROTC detachments at this year’s Sandhurst Military Skills Competition.
 
Hosted by westpoint_usma, the competition challenged cadets with events such as:
 
🔫  M4 & M17 marksmanship
🩹 Tactical Combat Casualty Care
🚤 Zodiac boat movement
💥 Grenade assault course
💪 Functional fitness stations
🌙 Night land navigation
