It's #workoutwednesday and for our final week of pt we decided to have some fun with capture the flag on Monday. Today we did some tire grabs and tug of war. Tomorrow we'll be playing some class football tomorrow and we all already know that the MS4s will beat the MS3s.

This Saturday the Raider Battlion held our annual Dining Out, where Cadets were able to relax and celebrate everything they have accomplished over the past year. During the event we inducted First Sergeant (Ret.) Dean Schoen into the Raider Battalion Hall of Fame.

The Raider Battalion would like to thank everyone again who came out for Cadet for a Day.  I know all of our Cadets had fun showing you what their lives are like. Here are just a few of the many photos we took.

It's #workoutwednesday again and this week we are going to highlight the amazing accomplishment made by some of our Raider Cadets in the early hours of Saturday morning. Beginning at 1230 hours, many Cadets challenged themselves to earn the Norwegian Foot March Badge.

Seniors of the Raider Battalion utilized the Battle of Antietam to conduct their annual staff ride last Tuesday. Each cadet had an opportunity to introduce a civil war General and examine the strategic and tactical decisions- before and during the bloody battle.

This week saw our final tactical lab of the semester with MSIIIs and contracted cadets conducting an area defense. They were tasked with securing an area and holding off any enemy attacks while lowerclassmen served as OPFOR and planned their assault.

This past Saturday our MSIII Cadets traveled to Fort Indiantown Gap for rifle qualification and weapons familiarization. Being the first time the Raider Battalion trained using the new qualification table, our MSIIIs had to learn quickly to switch between the different positions.

Time for another #workoutwednesday with the Raider Battalion. This morning, Alpha Company conducted an intense HIIT workout filled with variations of hill sprints, a sprint interval drill, and a “king of the hill” finisher. Bravo killed it with a ruck march on the Rail Trail.
