Havoc company,

This past Wednesday, USBATT75 (TF WARCLUB), alongside our Norwegian contingent counterpart, hosted another highly successful Norwegian Foot March.

The Norwegian foot march is a grueling 30KM, 18.6 mile march that consists of a 25lb dry ruck, servicemembers to be in full uniform and a time hack of roughly 4 hours, 30 minutes for males and 5 hours, 15 minutes for females. Both times vary depending on the age of the competitor.

Two of our Havoc soldiers, obtained a spot in the top 3 overall, top 3 male and top 3 female finisher categories. MSG Spiker came 2nd in the overall finisher and top 3 male categories, while SPC Philyaw came in 3rd place for top 3 female finishers.

A massive round of applause for our Havoc and TF WARCLUB soldiers that took up the challenge that is the Norwegian foot march and another massive round of applause for all our support personnel that made this event possible.

Havoc company,

This week, members across the MFO and our own Havoc soldiers took up the challenge to receive their German Armed Forces proficiency badge (GAFPB). The GAFPB consisted of a 100 meter swim in under 4 minutes, a physical fitness test, pistol qualification test and finishing with a 33lb ruck march.

The GAFPB is awarded in one of 3 variations, bronze being the lowest, silver and Gold be the highest variation achievable. Many of our Havoc soldiers took up this challenge and are greatly commended for their efforts. Events such as the GAFPB strengthens our partnerships with ally nations and strengthens the force as a whole, boosting morale, embracing a new challenge and etc.

A massive round of applause to our Havoc soldiers, USBATT75 and the MFO and a special thanks to those soldiers who have assisted in the operations and planning of the GAFPB.

🎆HAPPY NEW YEAR🎆

Wishing a happy new years from Havoc company and USBATT75 to our families and friends back home! As we move forward into 2026, I would like to take a moment to reflect on 2025.

Together as a unit, we have accomplished multiple home station and field drills, pre-mobilization training, and ultimately making our journey across across the Atlantic to the Sinai to begin our mission with the MFO.
I would like to commend our Havoc soldiers and the entirety of USBATT75 for the work that has been accomplished in 2025.

Every task and every challenge we were faced with was accomplished successfully and excellently. You have spent days away from loved ones, school, and civilian occupations and continue to do so while deployed. This is the hardest task of all and it asks a lot of us and our families to accomplish it, however you continue to drive forward with the loudest and proudest support from your families.

As we begin 2026, I ask that each and every one of you continue to hold your heads high and forward. Continue to do the excellent work you do. Continue to make new friends and memories. Continue being yourself and being proud of who you are and your purpose. In no time, we will begin our departure from the MFO, leaving behind a lasting legacy created by all of you.

Cheers to a new year. Cheers to Havoc company, to USBATT75, to our loved ones and to accomplishing our mission and returning home.

USBATT75 held a fun day event at the USBATT HQ. BBQ was served and cooked by SFC Harrison, SGM Cranford and SFC Holtum. A special thank you to them and all those that came out, or supported the event in any way.

Merry Christmas from Havoc company,

This holiday season, even though we are miles from home, the Soldiers of Havoc Company have worked hard to keep the Christmas spirit alive here in the Sinai. What you see in these photos are not just decorations or events, It is intentional effort to take care of one another, build community, and create a home-like environment while serving forward.

Over the month of December, our Soldiers have leaned fully into the season. Christmas movie nights under the lights, festive workouts, section photos, gingerbread houses, Santa hats, ugly sweaters, and plenty of laughter filled our spaces. These moments matter as they give our Soldiers a chance to decompress, connect, and remember that they are part of something bigger than themselves.

Now to our families back home, this message is for you.

Thank you for your unwavering support, patience, and sacrifice. Your Soldiers draw strength from you every single day, even when they cannot be home for the holidays, your love and encouragement reach them here. It shows in their morale, their professionalism, and the way they take care of each other.

Please know that your Soldiers are doing well, staying positive, and continuing to execute the mission with pride. We are grateful for the trust you place in us as leaders, and we do not take that responsibility lightly.

From our Havoc family to yours, we wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Thank you for standing with us.

Havoc company,

Today a few more of our Havoc soldiers attended the 3 day MFO Sentinel course.

The MFO Sentinel program is a peer support network made up of trained volunteer members of all ranks and contingents within the MFO. The program is designed to play an essential role in the detection, prevention, and support for members in distress. The Sentinel Program assists those military personnel in making the first step towards the appropriate support resources available and ensuring that they have peer support while in distress.

We are proud of our Havoc soldiers for engaging in this program offered by the MFO and encourage others to get involved with this unique program.
