73D Ordnance Battalion

Thank you COL Kendall and CSM Russell for presenting a coin of excellence to PV2 Douglas for leading by example and winning yesterday’s “Apache Drill Competition”. #YoungLeadership @15thSignal @73dODBN @EODArmyGuy @brown_clydea

My CSM @AllenderIsaac is so high-speed he can even give impromptu levy briefs...ok...maybe with a little help from a knowledgeable S1 NCO (SGT Jamesha Lewis). @HQandE_ODCO_73D @73dODBN @brown_clydea @OrdnanceCSM

Who is this masked man!? It’s none other than CSM Isaac Allender, grilling up some food for the EOD trainees during another Tailgate Tuesday Talk session-providing opportunity to share food and conversation concerning all things Army (and just life in general). @59thOrdnanceBDE

SDS Thurland hosted a fantastic Male #mentorship session focused on FM 7-22 (H2F) and becoming a valued member of a team. Some of the Soldiers are pictured below. Great seeing leaders embrace H2F! @73dODBN @EODArmyGuy @brown_clydea

Safe travels to FORSCOM’s newest EOD Lieutenants! The real adventure begins now. #GoOrdnance @ChiefofOrdnance @OrdnanceCSM @EodCmdtUSArmy @FORSCOM @59thOrdnanceBDE @brown_clydea

Soldier Spotlight! PVT Shulark is a 94E from the Louisiana NG. He is excelling in training and Soldiering. Keep it up! #thisismysquad @73dODBN @EODArmyGuy @15thSignal

Full of pride for today’s four 94R graduates! Welcome to the @USAODCorps. #GoOrdnance #LessThunderMoreLightning @EODArmyGuy @73dODBN

Tonight, we did the Female Mentorship session a little differently. DS Warner volunteered to help the trainees craft their own “I Love Me” books with their certs, awards, and records. She is setting them up for success! #thisismentorship @73dODBN @EODArmyGuy @brown_clydea

Weekly Soldier Spotlight: This week’s Spotlight is Private Fife, a 94E from Ohio. He joined in 2020 to prove to himself he was capable of serving as a Soldier. Great Decision! #ThisIsMySquad ! @73dODBN @59thOrdnanceBDE @15thSignal

Read of the week. A humanistic, enlightening look and discussion into life-after-conflict, from Vietnam and GWOT veteran’s perspectives. A recommend for all, especially our UMTs. @ChiefofOrdnance @OrdnanceCSM @59thOrdnanceBDE @brown_clydea

A Co’s CPT Moore and 1SG Camara-Falu volunteered to get the COVID vaccine today. Thank you for being part of the solution and leading from the front! #stopthespread #GoOrdnance @ChiefofOrdnance @OrdnanceCSM @59thOrdnanceBDE @brown_clydea

This week we’re proud to introduce SPC Leslie Permentier from McAllen, TX, for #WhyIServeWednesday. She saw the Army as an opportunity to venture outside her hometown and expand her horizons. Thank you for being on our Squad!

We will be in virtual attendance! Excited for LTG Smith’s words. One of my most favorite leaders I (LTC Lewis) had the good fortune to work for when he commanded the @20thCBRNE

This we’ll defend: #Constitution @CASCOM_CG @CASCOM_7 @ChiefofOrdnance @ordnanceDTC @EodCmdtUSArmy @brown_clydea @73dODBN @832dODBN @16OD_BN

A Co’s 1SG Camara-Falu and SSG Faucett spoke with trainees about the Capitol riots to facilitate education and understanding regarding their responsibilities as Soldiers and the Army’s stance on Extremism. #realtalk @ChiefofOrdnance @OrdnanceCSM @59thOrdnanceBDE @brown_clydea

Over the last few days the Apaches wrote a short essay on who they are, and where they came from. The Drill Sergeants are reading them now, allowing for a better understanding of the Soldiers in their care.#GoOrdnance @ChiefofOrdnance @OrdnanceCSM @brown_clydea @59thOrdnanceBDE
