Grafenwoehr, Germany (Oct. 27, 2016) -- A Norwegian squad walked away with top honors in 2016's European Best Squad competition here, Oct. 27.
This year's competition was focused on military sniper teams. Ten squads from across Europe competed alongside five U.S. military teams during the competition, Oct. 23 to 27.
The competition, hosted by the 7th Army Training Command here, is an annual squad competition that is focused on bringing together different squads from NATO and Partner for Peace nations by participating in a series of events.
The sniper squad from Sweden took second place, while the squad from Belgium took home third place.
The competition included a friendship shoot, a high-angle shoot from a helicopter, a water shoot from a boat, advanced marksmanship and night shooting. Some of the physical events included stalking, a terrain run, a 20-kilometer foot march, an obstacle course and land navigation.
"The competition challenged the competitors' physical and mental toughness as well as their marksmanship proficiency," said U.S. Army Maj. Erick Nyingi, the officer in charge of the competition.
