📣📣📣Volunteer Spotlight Moment📣📣📣

CPT Chandler is a native of Central Texas. While in the military, CPT Chandler was also a firefighter in the local community. He currently serves as one of the Brigade’s Assistant Operations Officers. In his spare time he likes to give back to the community in the form of instructing various classes.

He served as one of the lead instructors for a multi-agency hazard awareness course conducted at Salado Fire Department Station 2, with follow-on hands-on combatives training at Legends Jiu Jitsu. The training focused on course material and hazard awareness with practical skills and combatives training that followed.

The audience included first responders from:
Bell County Sheriff’s Office
Temple Police Department
Salado Fire Department
Temple Fire Department
Belton Fire Department
Temple EMS
Rockdale FD

The course was organized following a trend of first responders entering sites unaware with hazards present, such as a recent house fire in Salado Texas that turned out to be an attempted m**h lab that had been trapped with punji pits. This course was a blended instructional event presented by multiple agencies designed for law enforcement, fire, EMS, and first responders to improve recognition of improvised hazards, secondary devices, clandestine laboratories, and combative patient threats during mass-casualty or high-risk responses.

Thank you CPT Chandler for all you do in and outside of the uniform!

“Strengthening Partnerships, Enhancing Readiness

From 7–12 December, U.S. Army soldiers from 22d Chemical Battalion, 48th Chemical Brigade, 20th CBRNE Command, the premier Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, and Explosives (CBRNE) Command joined Canadian and Mexican forces at Fort Hood, Texas, for Exercise Fuerzas Amigas 2025.

The Fort Carson-based 10th Chemical Company was among 300 U.S. troops training alongside 24 Canadian and 85 Mexican Armed Forces personnel. Together, they focused on mass casualty response, hazardous materials operations, search and rescue, and chemical decontamination.

This annual trinational exercise builds shared understanding and capability to respond effectively to natural disasters and complex crises, while strengthening military-to-military partnerships across North America.

U.S. Army North, under U.S. Western Hemisphere Command, led the exercise—ensuring operational control, synchronization, and readiness to defend our homeland and deter strategic competitors. ”

Great Work Guardians!!
