24 ARMY July 2012 Abrams Tanks Line up at a Fort Benning, Ga., Range For Abrams tanks line up at a Fort Benning, Ga., range for the daytime live-fire event in the inaugural Sullivan Cup competition to select the Army’s best tank crew. 24 ARMY I July 2012 Text and Photographs By Dennis Steele Senior Staff Writer he U.S. Army Armor Center and School at Fort Benning, Ga., hosted the inaugural competition to select the Army’s best tank crew in May with the overarching goal of advancing the Armor Corps in the long term. With the contest theme “Forge the Thun- derbolt”—a reference to the lightning sym- bol on the traditional Armor patch—the Ar- mor Center is using the competition as a line of departure to reset Armor after 10 years of war and prepare the branch for the future. The competition reflected the lessons learned from combat in Iraq and Afghanistan while getting back to tanker basics, especially precision gunnery. Over four days, 15 tank crews representing individual armor brigades from throughout the force vied for the Sullivan Cup, named in honor of GEN Gordon R. Sullivan, U.S. Army retired, the 32nd Army Chief of Staff and a tanker. Currently, GEN Sullivan serves as president of the Association of the U.S. Army. July 2012 I ARMY 25 At right and below, crews work to assemble a track section during the maintenance event of the best tanker competition. The contest was composed of 12 scored challenges, which included crew tasks in Abrams tank maintenance, dis- mounted operations, live tank gunnery, small-arms proficiency and physical fitness along with tactical simulations Crews were scored that tested individual crew members on the time taken and the crew as a team. to complete the challenge. Based on total points scored, the crew from the 2nd Armored Brigade Combat Team (ABCT), 1st Armored Di- vision, based at Fort Bliss, Texas, cap- tured the Sullivan Cup.

Consistency was essential—finishing among the top three crews in a majority of the events with the considera- tion that day and night gunnery was weighted at 60 per- cent of the final scores and the other 10 events composed 40 percent of the total points. The better shooters racked up more points. 26 ARMY I July 2012 A tank crewman advances during the dismounted small-arms event. The 2nd ABCT, 1st Armored Divi- sion, crew finished among the top three places in eight of the events; the 1st ABCT, 1st Cavalry Division, crew was among the top three in six events; the 3rd ABCT, 1st Cavalry Division, crew was among the top three in four events; and the 194th Armored Bri- gade crew was among the top three in six events.

Years ago, there was the Cana- dian Cup, a competition for NATO tank crews, but it was discontinued. The idea of establishing a best tank crew competition within the U.S. Army began while the Armor Center was at Fort Knox. It became a reality at the center’s new home, getting valuable mentoring from one of its new Maneu- ver Center of Excellence colleagues, U.S. Army Ranger School, which holds the annual Best Ranger Competition, the oldest and best known event in the Army. The Rangers particularly pro- vided advice about gaining sponsors, 28 ARMY I July 2012 Left, the winning tank crew from the 2nd Armored Brigade Combat Team (ABCT), 1st Armored Division, carries a stretcher toward the finish line during the competition.

As a result, the inau- gural Sullivan Cup competition was well sponsored by many of the Army’s defense industry partners, setting the foundation for continu- ing success. Armor leaders said the best tank crew event will grow in coming years because the word will spread among the Armor community. More units will become interested in rep- resentation at the competition, with an increasingly higher emphasis on unit competitions sending the top crews to Fort Benning. The event was designed to be the catalyst for what Armor Center officials want to achieve among tankers in the fu- ture—a higher standard of basic Above left, SFC Marc Westenbarger, tank commander (TC), for the 4th ABCT, 1st Armored Division, signs a score sheet.

Armor officials said that they sense that precision gunnery skills have slipped somewhat during the last 10 years of emphasis on counterinsur- gency warfare, a necessary emphasis for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Keeping with future national strat- egy as the Army returns to a reset po- sition, precision gunnery and advanc- ing other fundamental armor skills again must receive focus, officials ex- plained.

Then let him have it and jump out and finish him with your hatchet.” Major Robert Rogers, 1759 RANGER TRAINING BRIGADE United States Army Infantry School Fort Benning, Georgia FEBRUARY 2011 RANGER CREED Recognizing that I volunteered as a Ranger, fully knowing the hazards of my chosen profession, I will always endeavor to uphold the prestige, honor, and high esprit de corps of the Rangers. Acknowledging the fact that a Ranger is a more elite Soldier who arrives at the cutting edge of battle by land, sea, or air, I accept the fact that as a Ranger my country expects me to move further, faster, and fight harder than any other Soldier. Never shall I fail my comrades I will always keep myself mentally alert, physically strong, and morally straight and I will shoulder more than my share of the task whatever it may be, one hundred percent and then some. Gallantly will I show the world that I am a specially selected and well trained Soldier. My courtesy to superior officers, neatness of dress, and care of equipment shall set the example for others to follow. Energetically will I meet the enemies of my country. I shall defeat them on the field of battle for I am better trained and will fight with all my might. Surrender is not a Ranger word. I will never leave a fallen comrade to fall into the hands of the enemy and under no circumstances will I ever embarrass my country.

    Class Narrative Class 16-66 D1 10 February 1966 –12 May 1966 U.S. Army Armor School OCS Class 16-66, Company D1 was the fifth OCS class at Fort Knox since the OCS course there closed during the Korean War. It was also the first of three Company D1 classes, and the first of three thirteen week Phase I classes that would be sent to Fort Lee, Virginia for Phase II OCS training and commissioning in the Quartermaster Corps. Phase I training cycle for the class started on Thursday 10 February 1966 with 116 volunteers and ended on Thursday 12 May 1966 with 93 graduates being sent to Fort Lee. Five members of the starting class would be recycled to Class 21-66, another Phase I Quartermaster class, and all five would graduate with that class at Fort Knox. Eighteen individuals would either quit or be relieved from the course. Unfortunately there was no news article in the Fort Knox post weekly newspaper about the class completing OCS training at Fort Knox. The 93 individuals sent to Fort Lee started Phase II of OCS training on Monday, 16 May 1966. On Tuesday, 19 July 1966 90 members of the class, re-designated Class 66-16, would be commissioned as Second Lieutenants in the Quartermaster Corps. The Honor Graduate was Richard A. Platt followed by Distinguished Graduates, in order of class ranking, Robert L. Whiteley, Louis Plank, Norris C. Conner and Richard D. Walls. These five individuals received special recognition by having “with distinction” printed in gold lettering on their diplomas.
