Army Reserve Best Squad: The Heart of the Warrior
What forges the heart of the warrior? It's the ability to strive forward when there's nothing left to give, it's the will to pull your team around you when the stress is high. Seventy-five warriors in 15 squads competed to see who the best of the best was. They left everything on the field, and each one proved themselves a warrior. #BSC2025 #ArmyBestSquad
