Nearly 70 service members from the West Virginia and District of Columbia National Guard and the Qatar Armed Forces participated in a 15-kilometer ruck march around the perimeter of the National Service Academy in Doha, Qatar, as part of the first-ever Best Warrior Competition held outside the United States. The march tested participants’ endurance and resilience, reinforcing the physical and mental demands of military service. Hosted from Feb. 2-5, 2025, the competition served as a platform to enhance military readiness, strengthen interoperability, and reinforce the enduring partnership established between West Virginia and Qatar in 2018.
