🐾 Wildlife Wednesday 🐾

Formation! This week’s Wildlife Recruit Report features: North American Beaver 🪖🦫

📝 After Action Report: This recruit was observed conducting unauthorized engineer operations along the perimeter fence. Known for building dams, modifying terrain, and improving water obstacles, beavers have clearly mastered field fortifications. No tools issued — just determination and a lot of chewing.

Wildlife Recruit Report features a Sandhill Crane spotted moving through the training areas at Fort Custer.

📝 After Action Report: With winter conditions beginning to break and thaw lines opening across the training areas, this element has resumed normal operations—utilizing open terrain for feeding and maintaining distance from high-traffic areas. No disturbance noted… this bird continues to operate with high situational awareness and adaptability to shifting seasonal conditions.

A reminder that even during transitional seasons, wildlife remains an active part of the training environment.

From all of us at Fort Custer, stay safe and stay observant. 🦩

After a tornado tore through training areas at Fort Custer Training Center, land nav points were buried and terrain was left unsafe.

Range Control and DPW got after it.

Through long hours and tough conditions, they’ve been clearing debris, reopening lanes, and restoring points—ensuring we’re ready for the summer training season!

Not all work is seen, but it all matters.

This is what readiness looks like.

Formation! This seasons first Wildlife Wednesdays Recruit Report features:
🦝Virgina Opossum🦝

After Action Review: North America's only marsupial conducts night opperations. This recruit is just starting its shift. Operating under cover of darkness, the Virgina oppossum handles pest control, clean up and general ecosystem maintenance across Fort Custer Training Center.

No spotlight. No recoginition. Just consistent work behind the scenes.

A reminder that not every role is high-visibility-but every role matters.
