1-7 Field Artillery

Good morning 1-7 FA friends and family!

Yesterday the 1st Infantry Division held an award ceremony for all our soldiers who completed the requirements for their Expert Infantry, Expert Soldier, and Expert Field Medical Badges.

Out of hundreds of participants across the Division, five of our soldiers: Specialist Heusted, 1st Lieutenant Thompson, Sergeant Djombalic, Staff Sergeant Asterberg, and Staff Sergeant McClendon, received their Expert Soldier Badges, the culmination of several weeks of studying, training, and sleepless nights.

We are truly grateful to have such incredible soldiers in our Battalion and we are proud of this outstanding achievement. We know these Expert Soldiers will be forced multipliers in our formations and be able to help mentor the next generation of Expert Soldiers.

Congratulations SPC Heusted, 1LT Thompson, SGT Djombalic, SSG Asterberg, and SSG McClendon!
