To our Dogface Soldiers, Families, and the dedicated Friends of the Marne Division:

Firstly, I would like to congratulate 1st Armored Brigade Combat Team on successfully concluding their recent field density training cycle. By employing Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS), Counter-Electronic Warfare (C-EW) measures, and integrating the Infantry Squad Vehicle (ISV), the Raider Brigade continues to enhance its rapid maneuverability and lethality within contested environments. As they transition into refit and maintenance operations, they will apply these lessons learned to prepare for their upcoming Raider Density training in July.

Meanwhile, 2nd Armored Brigade Combat Team is preparing for their upcoming National Training Center (NTC) 26-08 rotation. Spartan Brigade also continues to employ emerging Transforming in Contact (TiC) 2.0 technology and equipment throughout training, allowing them to improve adaptability within evolving battlespaces. Their NTC rotation will ensure 3rd Infantry Division remains a premier, lethal fighting force capable of rapid deployment and decisive action anywhere in the world.

Throughout the European theater, deployed elements of our Division Headquarters, Sustainment Brigade, and Combat Aviation Brigade remain steadfast in providing command and control for critical joint and warfighter training exercises. Their dedication has advanced interoperability and solidified enduring trust with our NATO partners. As preparations continue for their return to Fort Stewart, we proudly look forward to welcoming them home.

The 3rd Infantry Division Artillery’s 92nd Engineer Battalion continues building the Combat Driver’s Training Course, utilizing silt fences to prevent soil runoff and protect the environment. Upon completion, this dynamic course will prepare Soldiers to navigate vehicles across challenging, uneven terrain.

In conjunction with the Army's broader support for America 250 celebrations, the Marne Division is planning its own 'Marne 250' festivities to honor this momentous anniversary. This will take place June 29 – July 2 at different locations across Fort Stewart and Hunter Army Airfield.

I commend the unwavering professionalism demonstrated daily by our Dogface Soldiers, leaders, and families. Across every formation, the Marne Division upholds its reputation as a lethal, ready force, pioneering the Army’s implementation of TiC 2.0. Your commitment to excellence prepares us for today’s missions while shaping the battlefields of tomorrow. I look forward to building on our shared successes as we remain the standard-bearer for the U.S. Army.

Thank you for all you do to keep our formation ready. Stay mission-focused—Rock of the Marne!
