ANCHORAGE (Tribune News Service) — His voice boomed, but 1st Sgt. Robert Points urged the soldiers in formation on Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson to move slowly and carefully. "Don't get nervous," he yelled Tuesday morning before they dispersed.
Points said he hoped he'd see all of them again at the conclusion of a rigorous week. More likely, though, fewer than a third of them would make it to the award ceremony for two of the Army's expert badges, he said.
"I would love to see every single one of these guys here," Points said. "Unfortunately, that's not going to happen."
