U.S. Army Soldiers assigned to the 418th Civil Affairs Battalion competed in the Estonian Defence League's two-day shooting competition in Harju County, Estonia, Oct. 21-22, 2026. The multistage competition challenged Soldiers to apply their marksmanship fundamentals across a variety of demanding scenarios, combining physical movement, unconventional firing positions and technical proficiency to test their ability to adapt and perform under pressure. V Corps is the U.S. Army's only forward-deployed corps, serving as the senior tactical headquarters for Army forces in Eastern Europe to deter conflict and provide combat-ready forces alongside our NATO allies. V Corps is operationalizing and expanding the Eastern Flank Deterrence Initiative with Allies, rapidly integrating emerging technologies into training and tactical plans. (U.S. Army video by Sgt.
