Friends and Families of the Ready First Combat Team:
On behalf of Command Sergeant Major Carey and the Soldiers of Ready First, greetings from the Republic of Korea. I am an Iron Soldier, and I am thrilled and honored to join the Ready First family and look forward to working with our great volunteers and families in the future. Command Sergeant Major Carey and I extend our deepest appreciation for all you are doing to support our great Soldiers from Fort Bliss; and know that you are in our thoughts while we continue to carry out our mission here on the Korean Peninsula.
The list of accomplishments from across the brigade are too numerous to mention, but rest assured, your Soldiers are executing a variety of operations that directly support our Nationâs vital interests in South Korea. Whether it is tank gunnery, artillery tables, marksmanship training, medical exercises, or delivering world-class food in our dining facility, your Ready First Soldiers are enthusiastically accomplishing the many missions they face each and every day.
I am particularly proud of the relationships our team has forged with our allies. As you all know, the United States shares a special relationship with South Korea, and Ready First Soldiers are doing their part to strengthen this special bond with a resolute determination to build readiness through shared experiences and training. In my initial interactions with Soldiers and leaders from across the brigade, it is abundantly clear that they are proud to be a part of the 2nd Infantry/ROK-US Combined Division, thrilled to represent 1st Armored Division and the Fort Bliss community, and are always ready to âFight Tonight.â
As we continue to carry out our mission in the coming weeks and months, know that you remain in our thoughts and prayers. On behalf of all the Ready First Soldiers and leaders, thank you for your stalwart support and love â it is our most precious resource.

Hero of the week for 10 April-15 April
Apacheâs trooper of the week is SPC Carson Wyatt. This soldier, assigned to the headquarters section, displayed the epitome of resilience and Soldier mindset. SPC Carson created and developed the Apache Troop Geronimo Dungeon (GYM). In doing so, SPC Carson developed standardized workouts and created an area that can be utilized daily towards overall Soldier Physical fitness improvement. This Soldier continues to improve the gym through coordination with outside agencies such as DPW, to paint and stabilize the gym. This instills the espirt-de-corps of the Troop, and displays to the troop what it means to be a Geronimo. SPC Carson conducted this while also managing personal challenges in his life. In that SPC Carson displays exactly what it means to to be a Cavalry Trooper.
