31st Engineer Battalion

Ichord Avenue Clean Up Day! Join us on Saturday, October 23 as we collect litter and trash on our adopted highway. This usually only takes about 2 hours. We will meet in the Price Cutter (Waynesville) parking lot at 1:00 PM. @1stenbde @fortleonardwood

SFC Thompson was laterally promoted to 1SG Thompson at Range 5 on Friday. The Spartans came out to congratulate him as he official becomes the Delta Company First Sergeant. @1stENBDE @USAESHQ

Friday we conducted a BN awards ceremony. The Spartans have lost some extremely strong teammates, but we are excited to see what they accomplish in the next chapter of their lives. @1stENBDE #PeopleFirst

Spartans demonstrate excellence on a daily basis. Two of our officers graduated from the last Route Reconnaissance and Clearance Operations Course Please join us as we congratulate 2LT Rosario and 2LT Lopez-Berryman on their accomplishment! @fortleonardwood @USAESHQ @1stENBDE

Friday Sergeant Major Donald S. Collier was laterally promoted to Command Sergeant Major. Many members of the Fort Leonard Wood, and the Engineer Regiment were on hand to congratulate him. @1stENBDE @USAESHQ @fortleonardwood

Everyday, the Spartan Trainees get one step closer to becoming U.S. Army Soldiers. The Delta Company Dragons are ready for some hot chow after a long day at the range.@1stENBDE @TRADOC

Soldiers of the Spartan Battalion came out to the Strong Sapper Competition in force. Everyone at the event joined the 1,000-Pound Club. Thank you to HHC 1st EN BDE for hosting the event! @1stENBDE @fortleonardwood

The Spartan Team is dedicated to improving the lives of our Soldiers and Families. We would love to see our permanent party Soldiers and Family members at some of our upcoming events! @fortleonardwood @1stENBDE

Maintaining employment while moving can be very challenging. Employment with USAJobs allows you to quickly find a job each time you move. Today we had our first USAJobs 101 training. The Spartans will also be hosting a job fair in October! @1stENBDE @fortleonardwood @USAJOBS

D/31 Dragons are completing tactical operations in their first FTX1. They focus on tactical movements, first aide, radio communication, and team work. Trainees push through the heat and austere conditions to accomplish realistic training missions as a squad. @TRADOC @1stENBDE

C/31 Cobras proved that they have learned an Army Value: Personal Courage. Spartan Trainees conquer fear on the confidence tower with some motivation from their Drill Sergeants. They are many ways to get off the tower, but quitting is not one of them! @1stENBDE @fortleonardwood

A/31 Knights hit the range today to qualify with iron sights. Mastering the fundamentals, and concurrent training, have set them up for success. Our Drill Sergeants are the best rifle instructors in TRADOC! We are experts at training tomorrow's leaders today. @1stENBDE @TRADOC

Swimmers needed! Come out and support the 31st EN BN in the competition!

Charlie Company kicked off red phase with "Into the Breach." Spartans set the standard everyday. The trainees learned to work as a team to get through their first day of Basic Combat Training. @1stENBDE @fortleonardwood @TRADOC

The Alpha Company Knights have rifle marksmanship in their sights. The Spartan Drill Sergeants are expert coaches and instructors. With their help, the Knights will be able to consistently put rounds on target. @1stENBDE @TRADOC @fortleonardwood

Today members of the Spartan Battalion participated in an art judging contest with our Partner in Education, East Elementary School. The Soldiers were happy to support the students as a way to give back to the local community. @1stENBDE @fortleonardwood @EastElementary

Spartan Trainees learn about teamwork on day 1. Our Into the Breach event introduces them to the spirit of the Engineer Regiment, and shows them that the only way to make it through an obstacle is together. @TRADOC @1stENBDE @USAESHQ

Soldiers in the Spartan Battalion enjoy one of the best DFAC in the US Army. Food is a critical component in the Army's Holistic Health and Fitness program. Our trainees enjoy fresh food that fuels their training on their path to becoming Soldiers. @1stENBDE @fortleonardwood

Today we promoted SPC Sylver Morgan to CPL. CPL Morgan works in the Vehicle Operators Section of the best training battalion in the Army. He helps ensure that training runs smoothly by safely transporting trainees everyday. @flw @1stENBDE
