A Polish soldier assigned to 3rd Battalion, 12th Mechanized Brigade, embodies the spirit of friendly competition as he gives the thumbs-up sign while running down a muddy road with his battle buddies during the two-mile ruck march portion of a ruck and stress shoot competition between American Polish partners, Jan. 27, in Konotop, Poland.
