Warrior Adventure Quest (WAQ) is a DA approved and endorsed program under Executive Orders for all units. WAQ is designed to recreate the adrenaline rush of combat action in a supervised, controlled, high-adventure activity, which is supervised by Family and MWR Outdoor Recreation.

WAQ instills cohesion, builds teamwork and maintains combat readiness through challenging activities. This program enables Soldiers to reach a “new stage of normal” by diminishing boredom and high-risk behavior through outdoor recreation and a Leader-Led After Action Debriefing (L-LAAD). Soldiers will be able to draw similarities between the adventure activity and their Warrior experiences. This portion will be conducted by unit leadership (Squad Leader, NCOIC, OIC, Commander, etc.).
