The Expert Soldier Badge tests a Soldier’s performance in physical fitness and warfighting tasks, similar to the Expert Infantry Badge and Expert Field Medical Badge. The 1st Armored Brigade Combat Team, 3rd Infantry Division is currently hosting the Marne division's last opportunity of the year for EIB and ESB training. The ESB measures a Soldier’s proficiency in physical fitness, marksmanship, land navigation, and other warrior tasks to demonstrate a high level of lethality on the battlefield.

Master Combat Infantryman Badge. Gold wreath, same CIB vibe, but upgraded. 🪖🏅 It’s for Soldiers who earned a Combat Infantryman Badge and proved expert-level skills with an expert badge (like EIB, ESB, or EFMB). Combat-tested plus actually qualified. 🔥🎖️ Link in bio 🔗 SuperheroDIY.com #army #infantry #cib #eib #superherodiy | Superhero DIY

We were proud as heck to host the Expert Infantryman Badge training and testing here at the Fires Center of Excellence over the past few weeks. Things wrapped up this past Friday with 42 new recipients of the EIB receiving their honors in a ceremony attended by family, friends and units from all over the country. A strong Cadre is based in expertise and excellence in training, and the 434th Field Artillery Brigade knows a thing or two about that! #FiresStrong #EIB #expertinfantryman #cadre #dril
