Will Ruck For Food, Hooah!

216th Military Police Company conducted a ruck march and food drive, March 8, 2026, combining their commitment to both physical readiness and community service.

Soldiers carried rucks while collecting non-perishable food items for the Arkansas Food Bank. The Soldiers and their supporters donated more than 445 pounds of non-perishable food. The donation will help provide meals to individuals and families facing food insecurity across the state.

“The event served as an opportunity for Soldiers to strengthen teamwork, maintain physical fitness, and give back to the community they serve,” said Capt. Araby Branch, 216th MP company commander. “Initiatives like this reflect the dedication of the 216th Military Police Company not only to mission readiness, but also to supporting the citizens of Arkansas.”

The Arkansas Food Bank provides more than 34 million meals to families across 33 counties in central and southern Arkansas.

The 87th Troop Command Brigade Best Warrior Competition continued in the afternoon as competitors' ruck marched to their next training area. Soldiers were divided by category, with junior enlisted completing medical lanes involving casualty identification, a MEDEVAC request, and a combat casualty card. Noncommissioned officers began with weapons lanes, conducting disassembly, reassembly, and function checks on the M4, M17, M249, and M240, followed by controlled practice gr***de throws from multiple firing positions.

Both groups rotated lanes before wrapping up the day’s events at Camp Robinson, Ark., Dec. 6, 2025. Stay tuned as the competition wraps up tomorrow with Soldier boards, and the top NCO and junior Soldier winners will be announced during the awards ceremony at the end of the day.
