Their training is part of the ongoing efforts to ensure every warrior is fully qualified and ready to engage with and destroy any enemy they face. #SecondtoNone #Raiders #OneShotOneKill . @4thInfDiv

Their mission was to refine their concealment, stalking, and target acquisition skills. Despite the persistent rainfall, they focused on advanced camouflage techniques, including constructing custom ghillie suits from natural materials in the surrounding environment.

Their role on the battlefield is to eliminate enemy targets from concealed positions or at distances beyond the enemy’s ability to detect. Snipers from 1/4 ID conducted a multi-day field exercise in the rugged hills of South Korea.

During the Korean War, @USArmy snipers were used during the first recapture of Incheon, Seoul, and the Battle of Chosin Reservoir. It is no surprise that Army snipers continue to train in South Korea.

The Wightman NCO Academy holds a BLC every month, working in and around Camp Humphreys from early in the morning until late at night. Their efforts help develop the next generation of Warfighters!. #SecondtoNone

One of the SSG instructors said, “We still train, no matter the weather. We adapt and overcome, ensuring we train to standard without compromise. Our goal is battle-competent junior NCO’s.”

This 4-week course aims to shape and form those future leaders, giving them the knowledge and experience to take back to their units to share.

The instructors have a difficult assignment. To train Soldiers in basic leadership skills, Noncommissioned Officer (NCO) duties, responsibilities, and authority, and how to conduct performance-oriented training.

Time to put away your cell phone and pull out a compass and shoot an azimuth, it’s time for Land Navigation!. The @EighthArmyKorea Wightman NCO Academy has soldiers from around the peninsula (to include 2ID Warriors) and even Japan coming to @USAGHumphreys to train.

For his indominatable courage, consummate valor, and outstanding leadership, MSG Lee was awarded the Medal of Honor on 29 January, 1952. His portrait now sits in the 2ID Hall of Heroes, among many others. He was truly Second to None. #Hero #MoH #WeRemember

He persistently crawled forward, leading his platoon to finally retake their position, the vital objective. His leadership and determination led to the enemy forces withdrawal.

He did not let that deter him. Still refusing medical assistance, he advanced by crawling, rising to his knees to fire, and urging his men to follow. While directing the final assault, he was wounded a third time by enemy small-arms fire. But… he did not let that deter him.

Each time they assaulted, they were pushed back. Each time, MSG Lee regrouped the platoon and attempted again. On the fifth attempt, standing at the front of the formation, he was struck by another grenade, knocking him to the ground and wounding him in both legs.

This man received a leg wound from grenade fragments while moving back to the objective, but he did not let that deter him. He refused medical assistance and continued the attack.

When his platoon was forced from their position, overwhelmed by a large enemy force, and their PLT leader was wounded, MSG Lee assumed command (as a good NCO does). He regrouped the remainder of his platoon and led them in repeated assaults to regain their position.

Have you heard the name of MSG Hubert L. Lee?. From Leland, Mississippi, he joined the @USArmy in May of 1939. He was part of Company I, 23rd Infantry Regiment, 2nd Infantry Division during the Korean War.
